I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean the title of the song? I did a quick check. Some call it Dem Bones or Dry Bones and there are slightly different versions of the lyrics.
I didn �t see any scientific names. Is there another version with scientific terms? Have you tried to search You Tube?
Edit: They have a few different versions too, but most are the original version.
I found this song from Hannah Montana. It is called the Bone Dance. It was from her TV show.
If you mean, �What are the scientific names for the bones mentioned in the old gospel song? �, the web site www.free-online-health.com/language/.../bones-directory.htm shows a skeleton with some of the 206 bones of the human body listed.
Ballycastle- the link says it is broken. Thanks though..
I am trying to find the answer key to a worksheet that I found, asking for the scientific terms to the song "Them Bones."
For example-
the cranium is connected to the _______ bones
The metatarsals are connected to the _________
The tibia is connected to the ______________
The ___________ is connected to the pelvic bone
The Femur is connected to the ____________
The ________________ is connected to the rib bone
The ________________ is connected to the coccyx bone
The carpal bones are connected to the radius and ________
The clavical is connected to the _____________________
The patella is connected to the ________________ and fibula
We are studying the body parts, and several of my students asked me for these answers. I don �t want to tell them that I do not know, so I am seeking help.
Hi again Mahola, If you copy and paste the link into your seaarch engine, you �ll get diagrams with all the bones named. Alternatively, enchantedlearning.com has a very clear diagram with bones all named.
Here are lyrics to the Hannah Montana song and one other that I found. I haven �t found the one you are looking for yet.
Everybody knows the bones
Just had to find a way
Everybody know what I �m talking �bout
That �s how I �ll get an A
My body �s many parts
And this is where it starts Phalanges I have 10
And Metatarsals then
I got some Tarsals to
I �ll put them in my shoe
The Fibula is next
According to my text
Then comes the Tibia
That ain �t no Fibia
And now up to my knee, yeah, yeah, yeah
That �s the patella to me
Chorus:
We �re doing the bone
dance
You study the answers
Again and again �till I get it right
We �re doing the bone
dance
You dance and you learn it
And we won �t mess up this test
We �ll get it perfect
When I milk the cow
On Uncle Earl �s farm
I use the ulna bone
That is in my arm
Moo-Yah!!
And now I take it home
With the Parietal bone
It might be crazy
But we learn that way
Temporal and frontal too
And now we �re finally through
That makes two hundred and six
I found a way that clicks
Chant: Bone Thugs in the house
We �re doing the bone
dance
You study the answers
Again and again �till I get it right
We �re doing the bone
dance
You dance and you learnin �
And we won �t mess up this test
We �ll get it perfect.

Chorus:
206 Bones in the Body
206 That�s all there is
206 Bones in the Body
And if you sing it right
They sound like this�.
The skull is the cranium, right on top
Immovable joint and not a soft spot
Scapula�s the shoulder blade, a real flat bone
Sternum�s in the center and protects the heart alone
Chorus
Clavicle�s the collarbone, fractures all the time�
Chorus
Radius and ulna are above the wrist�
Chorus
Phalanges, you�ll find, are in the hands and feet�
Chorus
The tibia�s the shin and the fibula - you�ll see
Is in the lower leg, just under the knee
Tarsal�s in the ankles, right near the toes
And metatarsal�s in the foot�s as far as we goes!
Thank you all...it looks like I may have to take the weekend and just figure it out. I will print a copy when I am done for those of you who would like it!
