Children's chant

[Larry Scroggs]

Heard at my school in the late 1950s.

Whistle while you work
Khrushchev is a jerk
Eisenhower's got the power
But it doesn't work.

I scream
You scream
We all scream
For ice cream

The first Marine went over the wall
Parle vous
The second Marine went over the wall
Parle vous
The third Marine went over the wall
Got hit in the ass by a cannon ball
Inkey dinkey parle vous
(There were several different verses of this)
