[Sca-cooks] Query re. The Muffin Man!! (OOP OT)

[kattratt]

Well I learned it as this
Oh, do you know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Oh, do you know the muffin man
That lives on Drury Lane?

Oh, yes, I know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Oh, yes I know the muffin man
That lives on Drury Lane.

Now two of us know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Now two of us know the muffin man
That lives on Drury Lane.

Now we know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Now we know the muffin man
That lives on Drury Lane.

I will try and find a .wav file and send it to you.
Don't Worry Papa Gunthar I won't send it to the list...

It was a song that my mother sang to me as a child, of course so was
"This Old Man", which later got butchered by a certain purple Dinosaur
into "I LOVE YOU"...
