**********
"Flies in the sugarbowl, Shoo fly shoo. Cats in the buttermilk, Two by two. Pigs in the parlor, What'll I do? Skip to my Lou, My darling!"
This well-loved song brims with fun and humor when a young boy's parents leave the farm to do some shopping and he is "in charge" of keeping the peace on the farm. It doesn't take long before the animals take charge instead and invade the kitchen, the bathtub, the pantry and the parlor. It's mayhem, wonderful mayhem and the little farmer himself decides to join in the hilarity.
