He would sometimes sing it on a sunny Sunday morning when we were getting up in the 60s and 70s. I wondered if I had remembered it correctly all these decades later so was very happy to find this post with the full lyrics and the missing last line, lol! Thanks so much!

The family are all thoroughly upset with each other, yet they have a ritual of sitting down for breakfast and singing this song before they begin. It was so, so funny to see them all with such grumpy expressions having to sing this song. I wish I could recall the movie; it would be a wonderful clip to share.

I didn’t realize it was written in the 1800’s. I can’t wait to share this with her.

Yes! We did too. In kindergarten and 1st grade in the late 1950’s. I could never remember the second verse until I read it! Whenever I’ve mentioned the song to anyone, they didn’t remember it.

My mother-in-law would sing that song every morning. She was a retired school teacher.. Now I sing it to my own grand daughter, who I love to the moon and back.

We sang it every morning. I’m in my mid-sixties and I still remember the words. Thanks to Mrs. Wiggins, the best first grade teacher.
