Yesterday, the blooms on one of my Vitex trees was comvered with baby bumble bees. I instantly thought of a song "Bringing Home a Baby Bumble Bee", but could not remember the words to it. Am I in the twilight zone or was there ever such a song? Surely someone out there can help me ...... the melody has been bouncing around in my head all day.............need help !!!

    I don't remember it like this, wilo, but who knows? I cannot remember the words to it at all....just the melody.

    Too funny! As I read Wilo's lyrics, I was wondering what tune it was to! Sounds like a Girl Scout/Camp song for sure!

    Ya'll got my curiosity up so I looked it up on YouTube. There were several versions. Here's one of them so you can hear the tune.

    Here is a link that might be useful: Baby Bumblebee on YouTube...

    Too funny! Now I've "listened" to the video, and I too will have to have the tune run through my mind as I do yard work today! Carrie, maybe you and I should make a video of us doing garden work while singing the song! (not serious...)

    (Odd comments below the YouTube video. Had to figure out what "CP" was. I see it must be Club Penguin, which I know some kids play non-stop. I never was comfortable with my kids playing games on line with people I didn't know. The comments make me glad I'm "no fun.")

    Bobbi, bet you will hear this melody each and every time you see a bumble bee ..........from this moment forward!!
    Oh, and BTW, a gardening friend who came over day before yesterday knew the song......so glad to know I am not losing it completely.
