MY MOTHER LEARNED THIS SONG WHEN SHE WAS IN KINDERGARTEN.

WHAT DO HIGH STEPPING HORSES SAY?
WHAT DO HIGH STEPPING HORSES SAY?
HEE-HAW! HEE-HAW! HEE-HAW! HEE-HAW!

Submitter comment: MY MOTHER DID NOT LIKE THIS SONG BECAUSE SHE LOVED HORSES AND
SHE KNEW THEY DID NOT SAY "HEE-HAW." SHE DID NOT TEACH IT TO HER
CHILDREN. IT WAS LEARNED AT PEASLEE SCHOOL IN CINCINNATI.

Where learned: OHIO ; CINCINNATI
