This song was presented as a "Flemish folk song" in the 1954 movie, "Rhapsody" with Elizabeth Taylor. It was a beautiful tune and the words were simple, but enchanting. According to the movie it was called "See how I am jumping" and was a children's song.

Anyone heard of it, or was it just Hollywood fantasy?

Thanks,

kat

Thanks, Jim. I knew what the classical pieces were. Looks as though this was just someting written by Johnny Green, then, I suppose. It was a beautiful tune. Maybe with his name I can find it.

Thanks, again,
