Don’t know why these songs keep coming up in my memory. I keep remembering songs from elementary school music class. Songs like Shuckin of the corn, Happy Wonderer, and the Mary and Martha song.
Me too! A medley of patriotic songs and a medley of the songs for each military branch, ending with the Army Air Corps, are still strong in my mind from 5th an 6th grade music class when the piano would be pushed into our classroom!
Maybe we’re remembering different parts of the same song. I remember:
The wind blows cold in Cairo,
The sun refuses to shine.
Before I’d see my true love suffer
I’d work all the summertime.
I’d sing that to my kids and now to my granddaughter. They all thought it was crazy but funny.
There are often many versions of songs that have evolved through the years, so I’m sure you are remembering correctly. Thanks for sharing!
I remember those words too! We sang this song in elementary school 60 years ago. Old folk songs are great.
That is the second verse!
