There's a Hole in the Bucket (Campfire Song)

Category:	Fun
Link:	Performance Example
Notes:	Classic duet between Henry and Liza. Works great with two groups or two leaders. The circular logic is the whole joke - it ends right back where it started.

GThere's a hole in the bucket, dear D7Liza, dear Liza

GThere's a hole in the bucket, dear D7Liza, a Ghole

GThen fix it, dear D7Henry, dear Henry, dear Henry

GThen fix it, dear D7Henry, dear GHenry, fix it!

With Gwhat shall I fix it, dear D7Liza, dear Liza?

With Gwhat shall I fix it, dear D7Liza, with Gwhat?

With Gstraw, dear D7Henry... (dear Henry, with straw)

But the Gstraw is too long, dear D7Liza...

Then Gcut it, dear D7Henry...

With Gwhat shall I cut it, dear D7Liza?

With an Gaxe, dear D7Henry...

But the Gaxe is too dull, dear D7Liza...

Then Gsharpen it, dear D7Henry...

With Gwhat shall I sharpen it, dear D7Liza?

With a Gstone, dear D7Henry...

But the Gstone is too dry, dear D7Liza...

Then Gwet it, dear D7Henry...

With Gwhat shall I wet it, dear D7Liza?

With Gwater, dear D7Henry...

In Gwhat shall I fetch it, dear D7Liza?

In a Gbucket, dear D7Henry...

But there's a Ghole in the bucket, dear D7Liza, dear Liza...
