Polly wolly doodle- Shirley Temple Version. Key of G. Originally played on banjo, but sounds great on guitar! Easy to play too!* Verse 1:

Oh! I eat watermelon and I have for years,

Maybe grass tastes good to a moo cow's mouth,

sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day; 

But I like chicken 'cause I'm from the south,

sing Polly-wolly-doodle all the day.
