Bingo is een Engelstalig kinderliedje dat gaat over een boer met een hond, en Bingo was zijn naam.
Het is tot op de dag van vandaag een raadsel wie nu juist Bingo heette. De hond of de boer. Het is wel een eenvoudig en actief liedje om met je peuter of kleuter te zingen. Er zit namelijk heel wat herhaling in.
