I really liked this song when I was very young.

Speaking of Peter, Paul, and Mary

A favorite of my dad. He would sing it to me.

My earliest music memory involves Peter, Paul, and Mary. My aunt had a huge record collection, and I remember pulling this one off the shelf when I was 3 because it was my very favorite:

Most embarrassing so far. I had a dog named "Brandy." I used to sing this to her changing "Mandy" to "Brandy." Geez, I was weird. :lol: I really miss that dog.
