The cow kicked Nelly

Traditional

Save

This song may have been a Scouting song and an early ‘pop’ song. It is a great piece to get children to work expressively with their voices without it feeling formal in any way. The cow kicked Nelly is all about the leader making the rules and everyone else following.
