Shame the song is more associated with pot... but that is just people attaching their own meaning to it. To think they have made it into that is more heartbreaking than what the song actually means in some ways. Sigh.

Burl Ives - 'Little White Duck' - great collection of children's folk songs with one stand-out track: "Buckeye Jim" - a lilting lullaby filled with surreal imagery. I don't know what it's about but it gets me every time...

One of my favorites as a kid, still it today


One of my friends who works at a sleep-away camp says this one has turned into a kids song they sing around the fire almost every night...

Shel Silverstein's "Boy Named Sue". Not exactly a children's song but I remember it well



Father Abraham's "Smurf song" is a good one as well.

The bariotone sax has to be the coolest sounding instrument ever.
