Song group 1 The Animals went in Two by Two, Hurrah! Hurrah!

1. The animals went in two by two, Hurrah! Hurrah! The animals went in two by two, Hurrah! Hurrah! The animals went in two by two, the elephant and the kangaroo, and they all went, into the ark, for to get out of the rain.

2. The animals went in three by three…the wasp, the ant and the bumble bee… 3. The animals went in four by four…the great hippopotamus stuck in the door… 4. The animals went in five by five…by hugging each other they kept alive… 5. The animals went in six by six…they left out the monkey because of his tricks… 6. The animals went in seven by seven…the little pig thought he was going to heaven… 7. The animals went in eight by eight…the turtle thought he was coming late… 8. The animals went in nine by nine…marching up in a long straight line… 9. The animals went in ten by ten…the last one in was the little red hen…

The Snail and the Mouse Slowly slowly, very slowly, creeps the garden snail. Slowly slowly, very slowly, up the garden rail. Quickly quickly, very quickly, runs the little mouse. Quickly quickly, very quickly, round about the house. Four White Horses Four white horses on the river Hey, hey, hey, up tomorrow Up tomorrow is a rainy day Come on and join our shadow play Shadow play is a ripe banana Hey, hey, hey, up tomorrow Up tomorrow is a rainy day The Farmer in the Dell 1. The farmer in the dell, the farmer in the dell. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The farmer in the dell. 2. The farmer takes the wife, the farmer takes the wife. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The farmer takes the wife. 3. The wife takes the child, the wife takes the child. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The wife takes the child. 4. The child takes the nurse, the child takes the nurse. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The child takes the nurse. 5. The nurse takes the dog, the nurse takes the dog. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The nurse takes the dog. 6. The dog takes the cat, the dog takes the cat. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The dog takes the cat. 7. The cat takes the rat, the cat takes the rat. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The cat takes the rat. 8. The rat takes the cheese, the rat takes the cheese. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The rat takes the cheese. 9. The cheese stands alone, the cheese stands alone. Heigh ho! the Derry O! The cheese stands alone.
