Song Details

In this carefree song, many possibilities of play at the water’s edge are contemplated. After the introduction, Part 2 takes the melody, while Part 1 divides to sing the harmony (back-up group style). This arrangement is just plain fun!

Performance options

the introduction might be assigned to a soloist or two; to jazz it up, the Part 2 melody singers could sway, while the Part 1 back-up singers could add some simple choralography on their wa-oo’s, etc.

Suggested uses

• intermediate and upper grade elementary choruses
