Found A Peanut

Lyrics

(Sung to the tune of Clementine)

Found a peanut
Found a peanut
Found a peanut just now
Just now I found a peanut
Found a peanut just now

Cracked it open
Cracked it open
Cracked it open just now
Just now I cracked it open
Cracked it open just now

It was rotten
It was rotten
It was rotten just now
Just now it was rotten
It was rotten just now

Ate it anyway
Ate it anyway
Ate it anyway just now
Just now I ate it anyway
Ate it anyway just now

Got sick
Got sick
Got sick just now
Just now I got sick
Got sick just now

I died
I died
I died just now
Just now I died
I died just now

Went to Heaven
Went to Heaven
Went to Heaven just now
Just now I went to Heaven
Went to Heaven just now

Kicked an angel
Kicked an angel
Kicked an angel just now
Just now I kicked an angel
Kicked an angel just now

Went the other way
Went the other way
Went the other way just now
Just now I went the other way
Went the other way just now

Met the devil
Met the devil
Met the devil just now
Just now I met the devil
Met the devil just now

Played him cards
Played him cards
Played him cards just now
Just now I played him cards
Played him cards just now

Devil cheated
Devil cheated
Devil cheated just now
Just now Devil cheated
Devil cheated just now

Beat him anyway
Beat him anyway
Beat him anyway just now
Just now I beat him anyway
Beat him anyway just now

Got reborn
Got reborn
Got reborn just now
Just now I got reborn
Got reborn just now

Found a peanut....

CommentThis is a never ending song, where it goes on until someone chases the leader off. Where I saw it used was at a summer camp where it's introduced the first or second day and is brought up again a few more times by the original leader. Loved by younger scouts, dreaded by older socuts and adult leaders.
