Type "carrion Crow" into the lyric search. Second answer down, "The kangeroo sat on an oak" is the likely song. Canadian Ed McCurdy recorded it around 1960.

You've come to the right place.

Well I can't be TOO anonymous so here's a hint (Tee Hee)

I couldn't resist this opportunity to have just a teeny dig.

If you can guess who this is send me a PM and I'll send a prize to the first one who guesses ME.
