I have one of my former classrooms at The Hope Institute for introducing me to this song. They had heard it on a children’s CD and asked if I could sing it during music therapy, and I happily obliged.
I don’t really have a whole lot to say about this song — other than what I already said in the video! It’s just a fun tune that’s perfect for playing in the summertime, and the possibilities for new verses are endless.
Happy Sunday to you. Mine is off to a busy start, but I’m hoping for some downtime this afternoon so I can just hang out, learn some new songs, and maybe even write one to share with you later in the week.
I do other verses…ie: sitting on the bank with my dog named blue! It is a awesome song…always a go to summertime song for my students and my own kids! We love this one.
Agreed, Lisa!!!
Yay! Love it =) I wanna go to the lake and sing this one too. I didn’t know your verses – Super cool! I will have to add to the rep.
Here are the words I know:
Don’t stick your toe in the crawdad hole honey (repeat with babe)
Don’t stick your toe in the crawdad hole, You won’t have a toe no mo’
Honey oh baby mine.
What we gonna do when the creek runs dry honey (repeat with babe)
What we gonna do when the creek run dry, Sit on the bank and watch the crawdads die!
Honey oh baby mine.
Rachel, you’re always an inspiration!
Kat – thanks for sharing YOUR verses! Now I’m pumped to use this song again this week! Have a great one :D
