From: GUEST,tedlamoureux@hotmail.com If anyone knows of an early 70's folk song that ends with the phrase; "moon don't go (clap-clap)", "moon don't go (clap-clap)", "moon don't go (clap-clap)" (...then progressively softer....),moon don't go, moon don't go, moon don't go... We used to sing it in elementary school along with the PPM's "Bamboo"...good stuff! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks, Ted Lamoureux |

From: Little Robyn Ted, that's basically all there is to it - V1 Leader:Moon don't go Group:Moon don't go Leader:Moon don't go - o Group:Moon don't go - o Leader:Moon don't go Group:Moon don't go Leader:Moon don't go - o Group:Moon don't go - o During this verse the group can respond with percussion instruments as well - woodblock, maracas, claves, tambourine etc are suggested. V2 Leader:Moon don't go Group:Clap, clap (2 claps) Leader:Moon don't go - o Group:clap, clap repeat V3 Leader:Moon don't go Group:Clap (1 clap) etc. V4 Leader:Moon don't go Group:Clap, clap (2 claps) etc. At least, that's the way she does it on the record. I'm sure you can improvise, given the basic framework of the song. Robyn |

I'm listening to the samples on Amazon right now and I'm having flash backs to 2nd grade (1976!). Thanks for helping me connect to something very special from so long ago. Sincerely, Ted Lamoureux |
