My nephew and I found a snare drum in my shed and we're trying to figure out a few songs to learn, just for fun. So help me out with a few songs that can be played with just a snare, an acoustic, and vocals. We figured out a pretty niftey version of Hotel Yorba :D

We had some pretty impressive improvised jams going. This can be lots of fun. Anyone know any good sites with drum loops or like a free drum machine that can be downloaded? We're getting really into this :D Neither of us can keep a rhythm on the drum for shit though so we keep fighting over the guitar.
Fun fact: I've been playing guitar for 16 years now and have NEVER played in a real band.
edit: We found a few sites with free loops (freeloops.com, go figure lol) but the rhythm is off when they loop in iTunes? Any suggestions? Is there better software available for this or are the loops that we found simply not edited right? I think it's a synching/lagging problem due to iTunes.

you really need to add a bass drum to "play a song" and it sound right, unless one of you is an absolutely amazing snare player

many bands have existed/do exist with only a snare/hi-hat combo.

anything by the white stripes because apparently it doesn't matter how shitty the drumming is on their songs
