The Wheels on the Bus

The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All through the town.

Additional Verses:
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
The driver on the bus goes “Move on back”
The people on the bus go up and down
The money on the bus goes clink, clink, clink
The babies on the bus go waa, waa, waa
The mommies on the bus go shh, shh, shh
The daddies on the bus go “I love you!”

Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bobtails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh-hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh!

Slippery Fish

A slippery fish, a slippery fish,
Swimming in the ocean.
A slippery fish, a slippery fish,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a tuna fish!

A tuna fish, a tuna fish,
Swimming in the ocean.
A tuna fish, a tuna fish,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by an octopus!

An octopus, an octopus,
Swimming in the ocean.
An octopus, an octopus,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a great big shark!

A great big shark, a great big shark,
Swimming in the ocean.
A great big shark, a great big shark,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a humongous whale!

A humongous whale, a humongous whale,
Swimming in the ocean.
A humongous whale, a humongous whale,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a human!

Head, shoulders, Knees and Toes

(Tune: “London Bridge is Falling Down”)

Head and shoulders, knees and toes
Knees and toes, Knees and toes
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose

Sing a Song of Sixpence

Sing a song of sixpence
A pocket full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie!

When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing
Wasn’t that a dainty dish
To set before the king?

Rock-a-bye Baby

Rock-a-bye, Baby
In the tree top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fall
And down will come baby,
Cradle and all.

This is traditionally a lullaby although the words aren’t that comforting!

6 Little Ducks

Six little ducks that I once knew.
Fat ducks, skinny ducks, fair ducks, too.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack

Down to the river they would go,
Wibble-wobble, wibble-wobble, to and fro
But the one little duck with the feather on his back
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack,
A quack, quack, quack, A quack, quack, quack,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack!

Animal Fair

I went to the Animal Fair
The birds and the beasts were there
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair.
The monkey bumped the skunk
And sat on the elephant’s trunk
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees
And that was the end of the monk
The monk, the monk, the monk,
That was the end of the monk!

I’m a Little Squirrel

(Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot“)

I’m a little squirrel, fuzzy and gray
When fall comes, I gather nuts all day
So that when the winter comes, you see,
I’ll have food for my family and me.
