Let’s start the new year with an exceptionally dirty rhyme.
Down by the cherry tree,
that’s where she showed it to me,
it was black, hairy, had a big crack,
and it looked like a jungle to me.
So I whipped out my hairy banana,
shoved it up her crack,
she let out a big scream,
then I filled it with whip cream.

I remember it differently
It was under the cherry tree,
when she first showed it to me,
it was hairy and black and it looked like candy to me,
so I pulled out my hairy banana,
and shoved it up her crack,
OWW she screamed!
And so I pulled my hairy banana back!

The version that I knew (AKA correct) is:
Down by the cherry tree
For the whole wide world to see
it was big and black
it had a crack
and it looked like a cherry to me
So I pulled out my big banana
and i stuck it in the crack
It let out a scream
So I gave it some cream
And I pulled my banana back.

this is how Brian Gay sang it in 5th grade (1985):
Down by the cherry tree
That’s when it happened to me
It was big and black
And it had a crack
And it looked like a forest to me
So I whipped out my hairy bana-naaa
And I stuck it in the crack
Then I heard a scream
And I felt a cream
And that’s when I whipped it back

Wrong again;
Down by the cherry tree
That’s where she showed it to me
It was big and black
And it had a big crack
And it looked like a donut to me!
So I grabbed my hairy banana
And stuck it up the crack!
Filled it with cream
And she started to scream
So I took my banana back!

It’s really not about right or wrong, folks. The whole point of this site is to see different variations and versions of these rhymes we all know from childhood. Are they regional? Are they chronological? How did they spread across the country in the days before the Internet?

I remember it as:
Down by the cherry tree
That’s where she met me
It was hairy and black
and it had a big crack
and it looked like a jungle to me
So I took out my banana
and stuck it in the crack
she let out a scream
so I sprayed her with cream
and got my banana back.
*Been years since I’ve even thought of this, but it popped in my head today for some unknown reason today so I thought I’d see if others have seen/heard it. Guess so.
As for region, I learned this one in Washington State.

I remember it this way, as recited to me by a schoolmate when I was in fourth grade (1987):
It was under the cherry tree
that the lady showed it to me
it was hairy and black
and it had a big crack
and in fact she called it a pussy

this is how i heard it …
it started in a cherry tree
the first time she showed it to me
it was hairy and black
and it had a big crack
and it looked like a jungle to me
so i pulled out my hairy banana
and shoved it right up her crack
she let out a scream
so i gave her some cream
and i took my banana back
