And home he came hop, hop, hop

Mama’s little baby loves dancing, dancing
Mama’s little baby loves turning round
Mama’s little baby loves dancing, dancing
Mama’s little baby loves to boogie on down

Wee Baby Moon
03:25
|

There’s a wee baby moon lying on her back
with her little twinkling toes in the air
and she’s all by herself in the deep blue sky
but the wee baby moon doesn’t care

chorus:
A smooth road to London town, x2
The road goes up
and the road goes down
A smooth road to London town
But.... by and by we come to a dell
and there the road is not so swell
a bumpy road, a bumpy road,
a bumpy road to London town
chorus
But.... by and by we come to a wood
and there the road is not so good
a rough road, a rough road,
a rough road to London Town
chorus
But.... by and by we come to some ice
and there the road is not so nice
an icy road, an icy road
an icy road to London Town.

I want someone to buy me a pony
Jig jog, jig jog, jig a jog jee
Not too fat and not too bony
Jig jog, jig jog, jig a jog jee
For I want to go for a ride
All across the country side
With a jig jog, jig jog, jig jog, jig jog
Jig jog, jig a jog jee
With a jig jog, jig jog, jig jog, jig jog
Jig jog, jig a jog jee
See the ponies galloping, galloping down the country lane
See the ponies galloping, galloping down the country lane
See the ponies galloping, galloping down the country lane
See the ponies coming home, all tired out
all tired out, all tired at……NEIGH!!!!!!!!!

My grandfather clock goes
tick tock, tick tock
My kitchen clock goes
tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
My little wristwatch goes
tick-tick-tick-tick, tick-tick-tick-tick, tick-tick-tick-tick
Stop!

Cousin Peter
01:45
|
|||
Last evening cousin Peter came (x3)
to say that he was here
He hung his hat upon the hook..
He took his coat off arm by arm...
He kicked his boots off one by one..
He danced around in his stocking feet..
He twirled around on his tippy-toes..
He stomped around like a grizzly bear...

Bell horses, bell horses
What’s the time of day?
One o’clock, two o’clock
Time to run away
Chant: Two, four, six, eight
Meet me at the garden gate
Don’t be late
I won’t wait
Two, four, six, eight
Ride away on your horses
Your horses, your horses
Ride away on your horses
Ride on, ride on
Galloping, galloping, galloping
Galloping on we go, oh
Ride away on your horses
Your horses, your horses
Ride away on your horses
Now whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Hush-a-bye, don't you cry
Go to sleepy little baby
When you wake, you will have
All the pretty little horses
Blacks and bay, dapples and grays
Coach and six a little horses
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry
Go to sleepy little baby

En roulant ma boule roulant
En roulant ma boule
Behind our house there is a pond, en roulant ma boule
The ducks play on it all day long, rouli-roulant, ma boule roulant
Chorus
The ducks play on it all day long, en roulant ma boule
They swim and float and sing this song, rouli-roulant, ma boule roulant
Chorus
They swim and float and sing this song,
They make it as they go along
Chorus
They make it as they go along
And so the words are never wrong

I gave my love a cherry without a stone
I gave my love a chicken without a bone
I gave my love a story without an end
I gave my love a baby with no cryin'
How can there be a cherry without a stone?
How can there be a chicken without a bone?
How can there be a story without an end?
How can there be a baby with no cryin'
A cherry when it's bloomin' it has no stone
A chicken when it's pippin’ it has no bone
The story of I love you it has no end
A baby when it's sleeping there's no cryin’

The little mice go creeping, creeping, creeping
The little mice go creeping, all through the house
The big black cat goes stalking, stalking, stalking
The big black cat goes stalking all through the house
The little mice go scampering, scampering, scampering
The little mice go scampering all through the house

O Misses Sippy-o
Had a little baby-o
Dresses it in calico
Riding on a donkey
O Misses Epplewhite
Are you coming out tonight?
You look such a bonny sight
Riding on a donkey
Cobbler, cobbler mend my shoe
Have it done by half past two
Tu ra lu ra lu
Half past two is much too late
Have it done by half past eight
Tu ra lu ra lu

Todi diddledum, todi diddledum
Tiptoe 'round the mountain
Todi diddledum dee
Stomp 'round the mountain....
Run 'round the mountain...

Tommy thumb is up and Tommy thumb is down,
Tommy thumb is dancing all around the town
Dance him on your shoulders,
Dance him on your head
Dance him on your knees and tuck him into bed
Peter Pointer’s up...
Middle Man is up...
Ruby Ring...
Little Pinky….

Mister moon, mister moon
you're out too soon
The sun is still in the sky
Go back into your bed
And cover up your head
Until the day goes by
Twas on a summer evening
I walked the forest through
When suddenly I heard it
A soft and sweet cuckoo
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo
