Song Lyrics

[muttley]

Hi All
Hope you can help me. I am trying to find the lyrics to a song that I used to sing with my son and his cub scout troop but I can't find them anywhere. All I can remember about it is that you ended up sticking your tongue out at the end, with your knees together, elbows together as well as other body parts but I can't remember the rest of it. Can anyone help? I would like to sing this with the children in the 3 to 5 room that I currently work in. I think they would get a real laugh out of it, especially when I do the actions as well!
Thanks in advance for your help.

I thought it could be from the song "Father Abraham Had Many Sons"... But it doesn't include the actions of sticking your tongue out... I did come across this song as well...

We're singing in the rain, just singing in the rain.
What a glorious feeling, we're happy again.

Thumbs up! [Group echoes.]
A-root-ta-ta, root-ta-ta. root-ta-ta-TA

Add each of the following, in turn:
Thumbs Up
Arms Out
Elbows In
Knees Bent
Knees together
Toes together
Butt out
Chest out
Head Back
Tongue out

Does this sound familiar?

Thanks LA. That is spot on! I can't wait to try it next week with the kids!

Thank you for reminding me of "Father Abraham Had Many Sons"! I used to love it as a kid and I have now introduced this song to my LO.

My bubs is 14 months and I'm currently teaching her "A Sailor Went To Sea Sea Sea" that has lots of movement and actions as well...
