There is a children's song with the chorus 'haha thisaway haha thataway hahah thisaway my oh my'. It was used as the Wizbit signature tune (sung by Paul Daniels) but had an original version like 'all the boys come out and play' or similar. What is the proper title of the original tune? I remember a song we used to sing in Girl Guides long ago which had the chorus "Down among the dead men, pow-wow." Can anyone help with words and tune? Today I examined illustrations for the works of an ancient poet once known for his "drinking songs." Over 2,000 years after his death, he was commemorated in the title of a new piece of music, the tune of which is now familiar to every U.S. citizen on the planet and to many other people as well. Who was the poet, and what song uses that tune? Who wrote the tune and lyrics of the song 'It's Raining Men'?
