- NEW!
Help answer this question below.
First song I remember learning how to sing. (This was back when AM transister radios were in vogue.)
Roger Miller's "King of the Road".
As for children's songs, I don't recall anything other than "Pop Goes the Weasel"...which happens to be the theme of The Three Stooges shorts which I viewed daily.
Only song that I can remember singing as a kid was not a kids song......The Lion Sleeps Tonight.

There was a dirty local family called The Doak's and I remember learning the Doak song at a very early age:
Brown is the colour
Doak is the name
We're all together
Singing in the rain
Our daily wash, wash wash
"Tammy" in 1957, and "It's Only Make Believe" in 1958.
I'll be 60 next year on 3rd February.Before I was old enough to go to Kindergarten my Mom would sing to the three of us a song she made up the words to...it goes:
Sally is the best of girls, tries to hide her shiny curls mischief lies in her eyes they are blue like summer skies
Sally wears the plainest dress not a sign of fluffiness
playing ball not at all she's a picture on the wall.
A few years later when I went to Kindergarten I learned the words to this song. It goes:
Brother come and dance with me, both my hands I give to thee, right foot first, left foot then, turn around and back again.
Now that I reside in Berlin, Germany, I sing it in German. It's from HASEL and GRETL.
WASAWOO loves all the songs her Mom sang to her!
Joy to the World by Three Dog Night
