what IS that song?

ive got some kiddie-tune in my head (thanks to lucas' fisher price radio, this is the music running through my head while i'm walkin down the street, ha!) i think goes something like: "dunh du dunh, dun de dunh, doo dee doo doo doo dee dunh, singin' poly-ollie deedle all the day" ... do YOU remember this song, so i can move on?

by the way, 'london bridge' has a fascinating history.
and another by the way - lucas has gotten SIX TEETH in just 24 days (OUCH!

this is an easy one.... it dates from the 1920s and now I'll be singing it all day!!!

POLLY WADDLE DOODLE
Oh, I went down South for to see my Sal

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

My Sally is a spunky gal

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

Chorus:

Fare thee well, fare thee well

Fare thee well, my fairy fay

For I’m goin’ to Louisiana for to see my Susyanna

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

Oh my Sal, she is a maiden fair

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

With curly eyes and laughin’ hair

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

Chorus

Well a bullfrog sittin’ on a railroad track

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

Just a-pickin’ his teeth with a carpet tack

Singin’ "Polly Wolly Doodle" all the day

Repeat Chorus twice

wow, I was just singing this song to my two and a half year old (he thought it was hysterical) and I googled it 'cause I couldn't remember the words, and here we go! Thanks! I sang this song in grade school and have always gotten a kick out of it.
