Songs my dad used to sing:Days of the Week, Lily the Pink, etc


Recommended Posts

My dad used to sing a song about days of the week. It started "Monday is washing day, Tuesday is soup" and ended "Saturday is pay day". Does anyone remember the other bits?

 

My nan used to sing this to us & I now sing it to my 5 year old grandaughter. She loves it, especially soouuuuuup & does all the actions. Sunday is sung very slowly/softly whilst putting your palms together as though praying. Sunday we go to Church, is everybody happy, ya bet ya life we are ................

The joy and the memories we get out of songs and tunes is unbelievable and universal.

We've songs for all occasions, ceremonial, Religious, teaching, and all the moods you care to mention..

What would life be like with out music and I wonder how big apart it played in mans evolution....
