I'm looking for some more songs for school programs. I'm in East Tennessee (USA), where much of old music survives. I need a few songs that came from Ireland, Scotland, and England that were modified when they got to the USA. Preferably songs for nine to eleven year olds. One that I use is "How Old are You My Pretty Little Miss" (US version) and "Whaur are ye gaun, my Bonnie Wee Lass." Ideally, these would be songs the kids could respond to with their own lyrics.

Thanks!!!!!
