[PW] Re: ?Silly Song "Alice" -- Need Sheet Music?

[Laurie Lye]

Well, Sam, I can sing it for you...but I'd be mighty embarrassed to do so...if it comes to that, give me a holler....  This one's gone through my family for a couple of generations.

Hello,

Happy to have found this reincarnation of the old Stumpers group through a tip from John Dyson.

Here is my question:  I have a patron who is looking for the music to an old silly song he once learned.  The song, entitled Alice, and apparently often taught to children at camps and the like, has the following lyrics:

Alice, where are you going?
"Upstairs, to take a bath."
Alice, with legs like toothpicks
and a neck. Like. A. Giraffe-raffe-raffe-raffe.

Alice gets in the bathtub;
Alice pulls out the plug -- 
OH MY GRACIOUS, OH MY SOUL!
THERE GOES ALICE DOWN THE HOLE!
Glub, glub, glub, glub, glub.

Can anyone provide us with the music for this little song, or direct us to a link at which we may hear it sung? Contact information, including fax no. and e-mail address are below.  I've had no trouble finding the lyrics, but no luck pinning down the sheet music or a sound file for it.  

Thanks for your help.
