Thread Name: Anybody know this song? Baby Down Plughole
Subject: Anybody know this song?
I remember a song from when I was very young (early 1960's), that my parents knew. Neither of them can remember the words now either. All we know is the following:

The baby has gone down the plughole, The baby has gone down the plug, The poor little thing was so skinny and thin, It should have been born in a jug (in a jug).

This was sung in a heavy Cockney accent. Can anybody help me with this one? Thanks.
