I learnt this song when young too. My Aunt taught me it when all the family gathered round on Sunday afternoon for a sing-song which we had every week. It was very popular at the time. 1 of my Uncle's played guitar, 2 of my Uncle's played harmonica, Dad played bugle, my Aunt played xylophone & sung, my sister played recorder & everyone else just sung. We all had a good time. My Aunt had a dog with a toy which she called his ding-a-ling. Lol. When I 1st learnt it I didn't know about it's other meaning. (I've just lost my reputation for being little Miss Prim & Proper here, unfortunately). It has since been banned from being played on T.V. & radio for the double entendres.

Me too. I like their version of Mary's Boy Child but will have to wait for Xmas to share that 1.
My Gran was my favourite member of the family. She taught me how to read & sing & always listened to me & understood me when everyone was shouting at me for just telling the truth. I could talk to her about anything. I used to play in her garden with the dog & she often had my cousins round for me to play with. All the family used to go round for dinner on Sunday then we'd have a little sing-song before going to 1 of my Aunt's for another sing-along. I still miss her.
For years I was looking for this song and finally today (by accident) I found it! You know those songs you have heard but don’t know the names
