6. I Once Had A Pumpkin
6. I Once had a Pumpkin
During a piano lesson in the summer of 2003, my 6-yr-old student Abby Holbertson
wanted to sing a song for me. She sang I Once had a Pumpkin and I laughed so hard I
almost cried. I had just installed my Cakewalk recording program, so I quick turned on
the mic and got her to sing it again. I saved it and knew I'd use it for something
someday.
By the way, if her parents read this -just so you know- I did end up keeping her late that
day so she got her full piano lesson in.
I ONCE HAD A PUMPKIN
I once had a pumpkin a pumpkin a pumpkin
I once had a pumpkin with no face at all
With no eyes and no nose and no mouth and no ears
Oh I once had a pumpkin with no face at all
So I made a jack-o-lantern, jack-o-lantern, jack-o-lantern
So I made a jack-o-lantern with a big funny face
With a big eyes and a big nose and a big mouth and a big ears
So I made a jack-o-lantern with a big funny face
