annundrielYesterday's Prairie Home Companion was aimed at kids. I missed the part in the show where they performed it, but I heard them mention this poem and it was something I hadn't thought about for several years. Which of course meant I had to look it up. I used to be able to recite this. Give me another five minutes I'd I'll be able to again.
And, actually, I little internet research shows that it's actually a book. But I've only ever known it as performed on radio.
"Mooses Come Walking" by Arlo Guthrie
Mooses come walking over the hill
Mooses come walking, they rarely stand still
When mooses come walking they go where they will
When mooses come walking over the hill
Mooses look into your window at night
They look to the left and they look to the right
The mooses are smiling, they think it's a zoo
And that's why the mooses like looking at you
So, if you see mooses while lying in bed
It's best to just stay there pretending you're dead
The mooses will leave and you'll get the thrill
Of seeing the mooses go over the hill
