Yes sir, yes sir,

Who lives down the lane

Hey diddle diddle
Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed to see such fun
And the dish ran away with the spoon!
For a beautiful version of this song I’m afraid you’ll have to go here, but it’s so beautiful it’s well worth it.

Couldn’t put Humpty together again

Hokey Pokey
You put your right foot in,
You put your right foot out,
You put your right foot in
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn around,
That’s what it’s all about.
Again with:
Left foot
Right hand

I’m a little tea pot
I’m a little tea pot,
Short and stout
Here is my handle (one hand on hip),
Here is my spout (other arm out straight)
When I get all steamed up,
Hear me shout
Just tip me over and pour me out! (lean over toward spout)
I’m a clever teapot,
Yes it’s true
Here let me show you
What I can do
I can change my handle
And my spout (switch arm positions)
Just tip me over and pour me out! (lean over toward spout)
INCY WINCY SPIDER
Incy wincy spider
climbed up the water spout,
Down came the rain
and washed poor Incy out,
Out came the sun shine
and dried up all the rain,
And Incy Wincy spider
climbed up the spout again.
Jack and Jill
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.
Up Jack got and home did trot
As fast as he could caper;
And went to bed to mend his head
With vinegar and brown paper.
Jill came in and she did grin
To see Jack’s paper plaster;
Mother vexed did whip her next
For causing Jack’s disaster.
Miss Polly had a Dolly
Miss Polly had a dolly, who was sick, sick, sick.
So she called for the doctor to be quick, quick, quick.
The doctor came with his bag and his hat,
And he knocked on the door, with a rat-a-tat-tat.
He looked at the dolly and he shook his head,
And he said, ” Miss Polly put her straight to bed”.
He wrote on a paper for a pill, pill, pill.
That will make it better yes it will, will, will.
An alternative ending is:
I’ll be back in the morning with my bill, bill, bill.

Monkeys On the Bed
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!”
Four little monkeys jumping
on the bed, three little monkeys jumping on the bed, etc.
Round and round the garden…(Run your index finger around child’s palm.)
Like a teddy bear.
One step, two step…
(Walk your fingers up the child’s arm.)
Tickle you under there!
(Tickle under armpit!)
Mulberry bush
Here we go ‘round the mulberry bush
The mulberry bush, the mulberry bush

Which finger did it bite?
This little finger on my right.

Rock-a-bye baby
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.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
Repeat:
*Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!*
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
(*repeat)
Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
(*repeat)
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
(*repeat)
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark,—
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
(*repeat)
Row Row Row your Boat

We’re going to the moon.

Mary had a little lamb
Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb,
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow
Everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went,
Everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go
It followed her to school one day
School one day, school one day
It followed her to school one day
Which was against the rules.
It made the children laugh and play,
Laugh and play, laugh and play,
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school
And so the teacher turned it out,
Turned it out, turned it out,
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near
And waited patiently about,
Patiently about, patiently about,
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear
“Why does the lamb love Mary so?”
Love Mary so? Love Mary so?
“Why does the lamb love Mary so?”
The eager children cry
“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know.”
Loves the lamb, you know, loves the lamb, you know
“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know.”
The teacher did reply

Little Bo Peep
Little Bo peep has lost her sheep
And doesn’t know where to find them.
Leave them alone and they’ll come home,
Bringing their tails behind them.
Little Bo peep fell fast asleep
And dreamt she heard them bleating,
But when she awoke, she found it a joke,
For they were all still fleeting.
Then up she took her little crook
Determined for to find them.
She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed,
For they left their tails behind them.
It happened one day, as Bo peep did stray
Into a meadow hard by,
There she espied their tails side by side
All hung on a tree to dry.
She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye,
And over the hillocks went rambling,
And tried what she could,
As a shepherdess should,? To tack again each to its lambkin.
little bunnies sleeping
Little bunnies sleeping till it’s nearly noon
Let us gently wake them with a merry tune
Oh how still, are they ill, wake up soon
Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop?Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop
Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop?Hop little bunnies, don’t you stop
Little birdy sleeping till it’s nearly nine
Let us gently wake them from their nest of vine
Up we climb, just in time, wake up soon?
Flap little birdies, flap, flap, flap Flap little birdies, flap, flap, flap
Flap little birdies, flap, flap, flap,Flap little birdies,don’t you stop
Little alligators sleeping till it’s noon
Let us gently wake them with a merry tune
In we creep, while the alligator sleeps, wake up soon
Snap little alligator, snap, snap, snap, Snap little alligator, snap, snap, snap
Snap little alligator, snap, snap, snap, Snap little alligator, don’t you stop
Pop! goes the weasel
Half a pound of tupenny rice,
Half a pound of treacle.
That’s the way the money goes,
Pop! goes the weasel.
Up and down the City Road
In and out the Eagle
That’s the way the money goes
Pop! goes the weasel.
Pussy cat, pussy cat
Pussy cat, pussy cat, where have you been?
I’ve been down to London to visit the Queen.
Pussy cat, pussy cat, what did you there?
I frightened a little mouse, under her chair.
Old Mother Hubbard
Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard,
To give her poor dog a bone;
But when she came there
The cupboard was bare.
And so the poor dog had none.
She went to the baker’s
To buy him some bread,
And when she came back
Poor doggy was dead.
She went to the joiner’s
To buy him a coffin,
And when she came back
The dog was a-laughing
She went to the hatter’s
To buy him a hat,
And when she came back
He was feeding the cat.
She went to the barber’s
To buy him a wig,
And when she came back
He was dancing a jig.
She went to the fruiterer’s
To buy him some fruit,
And when she came back
He was playing the flute.
She went to the tailor’s
To buy him a coat,
And when she came back
He was riding a goat.
She went to the cobbler’s
To buy him some shoes,
And when she came back
He was reading the news.
She went to the seamstress
To buy him some linen,
And when she came back
The dog was a-spinning.
She went to the hosier’s
To buy him some hose,
And when she came back
He was dressed in his clothes.
The dame made a curtsey,
The dog made a bow;
The dame said, “Your servant,”
The dog said, “Bow, wow!”
One, two, buckle my shoe
One, two, buckle my shoe,
Three, four shut the door,
Five, six pick up sticks,
Seven, eight lay them straight,
Nine, ten a big fat hen.
Eleven, twelve, dig and delve;
Thirteen, fourteen, maids are walking;
Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen;
Seventeen, eighteen, maids awaiting;
Nineteen, twenty, my plate’s empty.

Pancake Song
Mix a pancake,
Beat a pancake,
Put it in a pan.
Cook a pancake,
Toss a pancake,
Catch it if you can.
Pat a cake
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,
Put it in the oven for baby and me.
Ring a Ring of Roses
Ring a-ring o’ roses,
A pocketful of posies.
ah-tishoo, ah-tishoo.
We all fall down.
The cows are in the meadow,
Eating buttercups,
ah-tishoo, ah-tishoo.
they all jump up.
La musica e’ esattamente la stessa del nostro girotondo.
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,
Oh wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before the king?
The king was in his counting house counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!
