    Funny thing about the video for that song. Rod Stewart looks like he really likes the kid and is having the time of his life, when apparently the little boy was a terror on the set and Rod Stewart wanted to throw him off the truck.

    Regardless, great song.

    For some reason, I started singing "Jug of Punch" as sung by the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem to my son, and he loves it. It's a nice little ditty and the repetitious chorus ("Tora lora low, Tora lora lay") really calms and comforts him.
    I always sang this to my nephew until my sister-in-law finally realized what it was about. So I changed to "Juice of the Barley" and told her I was a song about milking a cow and I was teaching him Gaelic.

    That lasted for about a week.
