My mother used to sing this song as a round with my 4 siblings and me in the early 70s. She would play the tune with guitar. In the southwestern part of Virginia. Who will draw a ring around the moon? Who will draw a line from star to star? Who will sing a penny's worth a tune to tell you how in love we..e are? next verse: I will draw a ring around the moon I will draw a line from star to star I will sing a penny's worth a tune to tell you how in love we are. I'd love to know origin of this little diddy. I have no idea if there is more to it than this. Thanks ML |
