This is a very tongue in cheek song about Christopher Columbus discovering America. The lyrics are as follows In fourteen hundred and ninety two Christopher Columbus set sail with his crew To reach the Indies was his intent But without Google maps that is not where his ships went The two month voyage didn’t go as planned In America his three ships reached dry land And since that day everybody knows his name For discovering America we know now who to blame For discovering America we know now who to blame Feel free to change the last 2 lines to For discovering America he’s had a lot of fame The song pack comes with Vocal mp3, Backing track mp3, Lyrics and Sheet Music

A really popular little action song which I wrote for little children. At nursery school they have to “mount your horses” and then just gallop about until “Off the horse we drop” where they usually hurl themselves to the ground and await the next “mount your horses” command. I’ve always maintained that this is the best song to make little children drop off quickly!!!
