The songs I remember from my childhood seem more universal than the poems. Many of them were commonly sung at summer camps- this may explain their wider distribution. Kids from many different regions may have attended a given camp and taken the songs they learned there back to their respective communities.

Although they could be gross- often describing disgusting things or depraved antisocial behavior- the songs typically weren't as "dirty" as the poems.
