SONG: FOUND A PEANUT 
Tune: “Clementine”
1. Found a peanut, found a peanut,
Found a peanut just now.
Just now I found a peanut,
Found a peanut just now.
2. It was rotten, it was rotten,
It was rotten just now.
Just now it was rotten,
It was rotten just now.
(Continue in a similar manner
with the following verses)
Ate it anyway….
I got sick…
Called the doctor…
Had surgery…
Died anyway…
Went to heaven…
Didn’t want me…
