A Dumb Song I Remember From Childhood: [View all]

(sung to the tune of "On Top of Ol' Smoky" )

On top of Spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball
When somebody sneezed.

It rolled off the table,
And onto the floor,
And then my poor meatball
Rolled out of the door.

It rolled to the garden,
And under a bush.
And then my poor meatball
Was nothing but mush.

I cried for my meatball
Down on bended knee,
But early next summer,
It grew to a tree.

The tree was all covered
With beautiful moss,
It grew lovely meatballs
In tomato sauce.

So if you eat Spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball
And DON’T. EV.-ER. SNEEZE!!

=================================
(told ya it was dumb.......)
IDK why it even popped into my head this morning.
