I'm looking for the lyrics to a ditty a friend of mine use to sing called "Achin' Drum". It started out like..."There was a man lived in the moon, in the moon, in the moon. There was a man lived in the moon and his name was Achin' Drum. He played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle...." and so forth. Anyone familiar with it? Thanks a bunch!
