A Little About This Song…

B-I-N-G-O is a traditional spelling song for children from England. It’s been found as “Bingo Was His Name-O” and “There Was a Farmer Who Had a Dog”, is an English language children’s song of obscure origin. Most kids know where to clap, dropping a new letter each round as they spell the name. Since you’re holding a guitar and can’t clap along, in the places where the singers clap, play a quick “diamond” immediately followed by a firm muting movement with the side of your strumming hand.
