Do you know more expressions like "Jeepers Creepers!" or "Finders keepers, losers weepers", "Stop by, say hi" where the words or parts of the phrase rhyme? Or at least how are they called so that I could google them? I �m completely at my wit �s end!

Jeepers creepers is also an old song we used to sing - way back when in the time of dinosaurs!

A sailor went to sea, sea, sea
To see what he could see, see, see.
But all that he could see, see, see,
Was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea.
Oh, they built the ship Titanic,
To sail the ocean blue,
and they thought they had a ship that the water wouldn �t go through, but the good lord raised his hand, said "The ship would never land". It was sad when the great ship went down, down, down.
Refrain:
It was sad, so sad,
It was sad, too bad,
It was sad when the great ship went down to the bottom of the sea
Uncles and aunts little childern lost their parents, It was sad when the great ship went down to the bottom of the sea.
Lots of old songs here:
