I am looking for a song about a millipede with many legs, who had many shoes hung up on pegs. Anyone heard of a kid's song like this?

Is it this one?

SS, DI (same song, different insect) LOL

(like a t-shirt my Hubby owns, "same shirt, different day")

Lyr Req: Willy the Spider (Scotty MacGregor)

"Willie the spider had too many legs,
he had dozens of shoes he had hung up on pegs,
so my little friend here's a lesson for you,
don't grumble each time that you put on your shoes."

Well Joe, my secret weapon is .... (drum roll).... an internet search which came up with the Mudcat thread. The search term I used was: "millipede with many legs, who had many shoes hung up on pegs"

I don't know the song at all.

Guest, open mike, I'm wondering if this answers your request.

The chorus:
Willy, the spider had so many legs. He had dozens of shoes neatly hung up on pegs. So my little friend here’s a lesson for you. Don’t grumble each time that you put on your shoes.
Perhaps this came from CaptKangaroo television? No verses come to
