RHYMES AND FINGERPLAYS:

HAVE YOU SEEN THE PANCAKE MAN? by Jean Warren
(Tune: Do You Know The Muffin Man?)
Have you seen the Pancake Man,
The Pancake Man, the Pancake Man?
Have you seen the Pancake Man,
Who Jumped from the skillet and ran and ran?
He jumped from the skillet down to the floor,
Down to the floor, down to the floor.
He jumped from the skillet down to the floor,
And ran and ran right out the door.
He called to wife as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the wife as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
He called to the daughter as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the daughter as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
He called to the farmer as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the farmer as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
He called to the cow as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the cow as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
He called to the dog as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the dog as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
He called to the cat, as he ran,
As he ran, as he ran.
He called to the cat, as he ran,
“You can’t catch me, I’m the Pancake Man!”
Have you seen the Pancake Man,
The Pancake Man, the Pancake Man?
Have you seen the Pancake Man
Who ran and ran and ran?
