Thread Name: Origins: Buckeye Jim - other odd lullabies
Subject: RE: Buckeyed Jim: Oddest lullaby I've heard
"Hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle. The cow jumped over the moon. The little dog laughed to see such sport, and the dish ran away with the spoon."

This other ditty, Buckeyed Jim, reminded me of this childrens rhyme. It has the same sort of feeling to me. Possibly game playing songs? Interesting.
