Debsh....I don't really know where did you get those "songs" but I've never heard them[and I'm spanish].....and somo of them are rude.....so....I don't know if you know what have you written here....its better if you don't know....

the first answer is good ^ ^;I sang it when I was young....so its ok.

other person said something of sara montiel....that's not correct.it's folk.....but the children really dont know of the existence of this woman and her songs.

I sang these songs:

Habia una vez un barquito chiquitito
habia una vez un barquito chiquitito
que no podÃa,que no podÃa que no podÃa navegar.

pasaron un, dos, tres,
cuatro , cinco, seis semanas,
pasaron un, dos, tres,
cuatro, cinco, seis semanas,
y aquel barquito y aquel barquito
y aquel barquito navegÃ³.

y si esta historia, parece corta,
volveremos, volveremos, a empezar,
habÃa una vez un barquito chiquitito (bis)
que no sabia, que no podÃa, que no podia, navegar..(and goes again)

--------------------------------------...

and this other:
el patio de mi casa es particular
cuando llueve se moja como los demas

agachate y vuelvete a agachar
que los agachaditos no saben bailar

H I J K L M N A[spelled in spanish...obviously]
que si tu no me quieres otro novio me querrÃ¡

H I J K L M N O
que si tu no me quieres,otro novio tendrÃ© yo

chocolate, molinillo
corre corre que te pillo!!!!!!!!!!
a estirar a estirar;que el demonio va a pasar

and this one....when it rains:
que llueva que llueva
la virgen de la cueva
los pajaritos cantan
las nubes se levantan
que sÃ,que no
que caiga un chaparron
con azucar y turron
que rompa los cristales de la estacion
y los mios no porque son de cartÃ³n

there are so many songs...but they're long to write;and I dont remember all the songs;so these were my favourites ^^

Of course.This is a childrens song that we sing outside. All kids, boys and girls make a circle, hand by hand. The circle they form is "el corro" so they start turning around in one direction, and can change direction with a chosen quew, and also they have to enact the words of the song below, and represent it while moving "en corro".

â€œAl corro de la patata

Comeremos ensalada

Lo que comen los seÃ±ores

Naranjitas y limones

AchupÃ©, achupÃ©

Sentadita me quedÃ©â€.

The circle of the potato
We shall all eat salad
Eat what the lords eat
Little oranges and lemons
AchupÃ©, achupÃ©
Sitting I remained ".

Enjoy it

its not FOLK song but it was a fun song we all used to sing in many spanish schools;

the chorus was just making these noises ; like of the tune, then this was the song, there are loads of variations of it;

'las ninas de mi clase ya no van en la piscina,
porque dicen que han visto una polla submarina'
chorus noises
'los ninos de mi clase ya no van en avion,
porque dicen que han visto un marciano maricon'
chorus noises

it goes on forever, everyone knew diffrent versions :-)

or another song we used to sing was;

Una sardina (1 person would sing this)
una sardina (everyone else would echo it aftrewoulds)

Dos sardinas (1st person again)
Dos sardinas (everuone else again)

tres sardinas (1st)
tres sardinas (everyone else)

Y una ????? (1st person) they can say whatever they want by the question marks

and then they say a name and that person tyakes over the 1st person bit.....

i dont actually know what a folk song is........maybe if i knew i could tell you one...
