LITTLE DUCKY DUDDLE

MY MOTHER LEARNED THIS SONG WHEN SHE WAS IN KINDERGARTEN.
SHE TAUGHT IT TO ME WHEN I WAS ABOUT THE SAME AGE.
"LITTLE DUCKY DUDDLE"
LITTLE DUCKY DUDDLE
WENT WADING IN A PUDDLE
WENT WADING IN A PUDDLE, QUITE SMALL.
HE SAID,"IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER,
HOW MUCH I SPLASH AND SPLATTER,
I'M ONLY A DUCKY AFTER ALL!"

Submitter comment: THIS WAS ORIGINALLY LEARNED AT PEASLEE SCHOOL,
CINCINNATI, OHIO. WE OFTEN SANG THIS SONG WHILE WALKING
IN THE RAIN. IT WAS ACCENTED WITH "QUACKING" SOUND
EFFECTS.
