: At least a thousand.
another gentleman has other words but once I heard yours, I realized that I had heard the song both ways.
I still wonder why I associate it with some international "Y" organization.
The Girl Scouts, which I am, sing of "Our Chalet" in Switzerland and the song seemed to be of that ilk.
Thanks.
