do u know that song?
i never heard it to anyone,and nobody taught us that song in school ,LOL!i just wonder if that song really existed before.
and this nursery rhyme i like..
There was an old woman who swallowed a fly,
Oh my!swallowed a fly?poor old woman,I think she`ll die..
There was an old woman who swallowed a spider,she swallowed a spider to kill the fly,
Oh my!swallowed a fly?poor old woman i think she`ll die..
and it ended up with a cow,
she died of course!was the last phrase.
Are you familiar with it,too?
Hmm! I'm missing camp!
ghee: I am familiar with shoo fly and the old woman who swallowed a fly. I recite the latter to my kids sometimes.
MOI: I have been to camp only once. I remember the song from a short film about it. I think it was produced by the NFB (National Film Board of Canada, but I could be wrong).
barbara: flies are very important to the ecology, notwithstanding how annoying they are.
