I had a little turtle.

his name was Tiny Tim.

I put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim.

He drank up all the water.

He ate up all the soap.

Now he's home sick in bed with bubbles in his throat.

Answer 18

yes, I have heard it - it is printed on my grandson's blanket. I had never heard it before.

Answer 19

It sounds like a rhyme about Miss Mary.

Miss Mary had a baby his name was tinny Tim. She put him in the bath tub to she if he could swim. He drank up all the water he ate up all the soap. He tried to eat the bath tub but it wouldn't fit down his throat. Miss Mary called the doctor, doctor called the nurse, the nurse called the lady with the alligator purse. In came the doctor, in came the nurse, in came the lady with the alligator purse. Measles said the doctor, mumps said the nurse, and i now cant remember the rest.

Answer 20

Never heard of it before - but it's opened up a whole new possibility of a function for "Yahoo Answers"...

Imagine if you were the only one in the whole wide world who remembered this particular childhood rhyme - and you 'popped your clogs - it would have been lost forever!

Now it's on here - even if we've never heard it before - it will never be forgotten.

Have a thumbs up (or a star or whatever) for posting it...
