My son keeps singing a song he learned I think during MOPS the other day. I have noone to call in MOPS to ask what song this is. I was hoping you ladies could help me.
Some of what he is singing is:
"...Somebody step on me...."
"....I'm a nut. (sound with tongue tock tock). I'm a nut (sound tock tock)"
He keeps singing "I'm a nut! tock tock! I'm a nut! tock tock!" and it's driving me mad that I have no idea what he's singing. BTW - he doesn't say "tock" he makes a clicking noise with his tongue.
Anyone know what this is?
Thank you Thank you! I just started saying the lyrics you gave and I'm about to click on the link to hear how I should actually sing it. My son is here and he said "YES - an acorn! I'm a nut! I'm a nut!" HA - thank you! Eh the link didn't have the music. But I searched on YouTube and am now listening. Thanks. I guess I could have googled "I'm a nut" before posting on here. But I didn't. Oh well. Thanks again.
I'm a L. acorn nut, sitting on the cold cold ground. Everybody steps on me, that is why I'm cracked you see! I'm a nut, I'm a jut, I'm a nut I'm a nut I'm a nut!
Idk the proper name of the L. song, but we used to sing it at ymca camp!!
It's called "I'm a nut" :)
Here's a link where you can hear the tune (though the lyrics are a little different than how I learned them): http://www.boyscouttrail.com/content/song/im_a_nut-486.asp
He's singing it right!
What Kate D said although when my kids learned it in preschool, the first line was "I'm an acorn, small and round, sitting on the cold, cold, ground"
Boy, you caused me to have flash-backs. It is indeed a camp song. After 20 years working with 11-year-old boy scouts I could sing that if I was in a coma. The kids love it. Also, there are several versions of the lyrics. We clapped twice after each "I'm a nut" instead of the tongue clicks. Good activity song for wiggly kids. Thanks for the smiles.
I'm a little acorn brown
Lying on the cold, cold ground
Everybody steps on me
That is why I'm cracked you see
I'm a nut
I'm a nut
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut
Called myself on the telephone
Just to see if I was home
Asked myself out on a date
picked me up at half past eight
I'm a nut
I'm a nut
I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut
There are lots more verses
Have fun!
I love that song!!!
Now i cant' get it out of my head.
