Baa Baa Black Sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes Sir
Three bags Full.
One for my Master
And one for my Dame,
And one for the little Boy
Who lives down the lane.
I’m a Little Teapot, short and stout
Here’s my handle
Here’s my spout.
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout
Just tip me over and pour me out.
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the King’s men,
Couldn’t put Humpty together again
Johnny Johnny, Yes Papa?
Eating sugar? No Papa.
Telling lies? No Papa.
Open your mouth
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle Twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Row, row, row your Boat,
Gently down the stream,
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a Dream.
Incy Wincy Spider, climbing up the Spout,
Down came the rain and washed the Spider out.
Out came the Sunshine and dried up all the Rain
And the Incy Wincy Spider climbed up the Spout again.
Rain Rain go away,
Come again another day.
Rain Rain go away,
Little Johnny wants to play.
Little Girl, Little Girl where have you been?
Gathering roses to give to the Queen.
Little Girl, little Girl what gave she you?
She gave me a diamond as big as my shoe!
Hey Diddle Diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.
Happy Birthday to You
Happy Birthday to You
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday to You.
From good friends and true,
From old friends and new,
May good luck go with you
And happiness too.
One, Two, buckle My shoe
Three, Four, open the Door.
Five, Six, pick up Sticks.
Seven, Eight, lay them Straight.
Nine, Ten a big fat Hen!
Little Miss Muffet sat on a Tuffet,
Eating her Curds and Whey.
Along came a Spider, who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away!
Hickory Dickory Dock
The mouse ran up the clock.
The clock struck one, the mouse ran down
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Mary had a little Lamb
Whose fleece was white as Snow.
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
Old MacDonald had a Farm, E-I-E-I-O.
And on his farm he had some cows, E-I-E-I-O.
With a moo-moo here and a moo-moo there,
Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo-moo,
Old MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O.
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.
London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down,
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady.
Ring a Ring O’ Roses,
A pocket full of Posies.
A-tishoo! A-tishoo!
We all fall down.
Five little Ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.
Mother Duck said ‘Quack quack quack’,
But only four little ducks came back.
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands,
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you’re happy and you know it then you really want to show it,
If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.
Five little Monkeys jumping on the bed,
One fell off and bumped his head!
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
‘No more Monkeys jumping on the bed!’
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, Baker’s Man,
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with ‘B’,
And put it in the oven for Baby and me!
One, two, three-four-five,
Once I caught a fish alive.
Six, seven, eight-nine-ten,
Then I let it go again.

WXY and Z
Now I know my ABCs,
Next time won’t you sing with me?
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
And can’t tell where to find them.
Leave them alone and they’ll come home
Bringing their tails behind them.
Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown.
Rapping at the window, crying through the door,
‘Are the children in their beds? Now it’s eight o’clock.’
Rock-a-bye Baby, on the treetop,
When the wind blows the cradle will rock.
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,
And down will come baby, cradle and all.
Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells,
And pretty maids all in a row.
Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
And a merry old soul was he;
He called for his pipe, and he called for his bowl,
And he called for his fiddlers three.
Sing a song of Sixpence, a pocketful 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?
Three blind mice, three blind mice,
See how they run, see how they run!
They all ran after the farmer’s wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a sight in your life,
As three blind mice?
Yankee Doodle went to town,
Riding on a pony.
Stuck a feather in his cap
And called it Macaroni.
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear turn around,
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear touch the ground.
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear jump up high,
Teddy Bear Teddy Bear touch the sky.
Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse ran up the clock.
The clock struck One, the mouse ran down,
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Ding Dong Bell,
Pussy’s in the well.
Who put her in?
Little Johnny Green.
Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.
What a naughty boy was that
Tried to drown the poor cat!
Simple Simon met a Pieman
Going to the fair.
Said Simple Simon to the Pieman
‘Let me taste your ware.’
Little Tommy Tucker
Sings for his supper.
What shall we give him?
Brown bread and butter.
How shall he cut it
Without a knife?
How will he be married
Without a wife?
Brush Brush Brush your Teeth
Brush it every day.
Father, Mother, Brother, Sister,
Brush it every Day!
Here we go round the Mulberry Bush,
The Mulberry Bush, The Mulberry Bush.
Here we go round the Mulberry Bush
On a cold and frosty morning.
There was a farmer who had a dog
And Bingo was his Name-O.
B-I-N-G-O!
B-I-N-G-O!
B-I-N-G-O!
And Bingo was his Name-O!
A Tisket, a Tasket, a green and yellow basket,
I wrote a letter to my friend and on the way I dropped it.
I dropped it, I dropped it, and on the way I dropped it.
The little boy picked it up, and put it in his pocket.
A Wise Old Owl sat in an Oak.
The more he heard, the less he spoke.
The less he spoke, the more he heard.
Why aren’t we all like that wise old bird?
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, knees and toes;
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, knees and toes.
And eyes, and ears, and mouth and nose,
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, knees and toes.
Oh, the grand old Duke of York,
He had ten thousand men.
He marched them up to the top of the hill,
And he marched them down again.
Goosey, Goosey Gander
Whither shall I wander?
Upstairs and downstairs
And in my lady’s chamber.
Polly put the Kettle on,
Polly put the Kettle on,
Polly put the Kettle on,
We’ll all have Tea!
Jack be Nimble,
Jack be Quick,
Jack jump over
The Candlestick.
Jack jumped high,
Jack jumped low,
Jack jumped over
And burned his toe.
