Don't forget poor little Pinchme!

Adam and Eve and Pinchme,
Went down to the river to bathe.
Adam and Eve were drowned.
Who do you think was saved?

My BFF and I stood in front of the class (3rd grade) and attempted to perform the Pinchme skit, but as soon as the Catholic nun heard the words "Adam and Eve," she shut us down and ushered us back to our seats.

In retrospect, I suspect that she thought we were about to deliver something risque, something indecent and suggestive about Adam and Eve.

Lots of folks wanted Mike's love.

Wonder who he was.

I also heard it as Pete. Maybe Mike and Pete were brothers.

Pete and Repeat were in a boat. Pete fell out, who was left?
