A Storytelling of Crows: November 2008
http://astorytellingofcrows.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 3, 2008. I Go Outside With My Lantern: A Lantern Walk Song. My daughter's kindergarten teacher sang "I go outside with my lantern," the main Lantern Walk song, so that people could learn the words and tune before Martinmas. The sheet music you see is one version of the song, but the lyrics listed below are the ones that my daughter's kindergarten class sings. Here are the words:. I go outside with my lantern, my lantern goes with me. I go outside with my lantern, my lantern goes with me.

http://saintsandspinners.blogspot.com/2014/01/january-tidbits.html
