About this tune

Bingo is a singing game about a farmer and his dog. The verse introduces the dog, then spells out his name three times before returning to “Bingo was his name-o.”

In the clapping game, each new verse replaces another letter with a clap. The missing letters make a rhythmic memory game while the melody continues around them.
