A traditional children’s song from Tokamachi City in Niigata Prefecture.

Deeply tied to local life and the natural environment, it was sometimes sung while making paper snakes with origami.

This is a song from the second album by The Timers, the band where Kiyoshiro didn’t use his real name and went by Zerry.
