I can tie my shoelace
I can comb my hair
I can wash my hands and face
And dry myself with care
I can brush my teeth, too
And button up my frocks
I can say, “How do you do?”
And put on both socks
I had a little nut tree
Nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg
And a golden pear
The King of Spain’s daughter
Came to visit me
And all for the sake
Of my little nut tree
I hear thunder, I hear thunder
Hark don't you, hark don't you
Pitter, patter, rain drops
Pitter, patter, rain drops
I'm wet through, so are you
I love little pussy, her coat is so warm
And if I don’t hurt her, she’ll do me no harm
I’ll not pull her tail or drive her away
But pussy and I together will play
She’ll sit by my side and I’ll give her some food
And pussy will like me because I am good
I saw a ship a-sailing, a-sailing on the sea
And all it was a laden with pretty things for thee
There were confits in the cabin, and apples in the hold
The sails were made of silk and the masts were all of gold
The four and twenty sailors had stood between the decks
Were four and twenty white mice with chains about their necks
The captain was a duck, with a packet on his back
And when the ship began to move, the captain said, 'Quack, quack'
I saw three ships come sailing by
Come sailing by, come sailing by
I saw three ships come sailing by
On New Years day in the morning
And what do you think was in them then?
Was in them then, was in them then
And what do you think was in them then?
On New Years day in the morning
Three pretty girls were in them then
Were in them then, were in them then
Three pretty girls were in them then
On New Years day in the morning
One could whistle another could sing
And the other could play on the violin
Such a joy was there at my wedding
On New Years day in the morning
I saw three ships come sailing by
Come sailing by, come sailing by
I saw three ships come sailing by
On New Years day in the morning
I see the moon
And the moon sees me
God bless the moon
And God bless me
If all the world were paper
And all the sea were ink
And all the trees were bread and cheese
What should we do for drink?
If You're Happy And You Know It
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 and you really want to show it
If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands
If you’re happy and you know it stamp your feet
If you’re happy and you know it stamp your feet
If you’re happy and you know it and you really want to show it
If you’re happy and you know it stamp your feet
If you’re happy and you know it nod your head
If you’re happy and you know it nod your head
If you’re happy and you know it and you really want to show it
If you’re happy and you know it nod your head
If you’re happy and you know it shout hooray
If you’re happy and you know it shout hooray
If you’re happy and you know it and you really want to show it
If you’re happy and you know it shout hooray
It's Raining It's Pouring
It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring
He went to bed and bumped his head
And couldn't get up in the morning
Jack A Nory
I'll tell you a story
About Jack a Nory
And now my story's begun
I'll tell you another
About Jack's brother
And now my story's done
Jack Be Nimble
Jack be nimble
Jack be quick
Jack jump over
The candlestick
Jack Sprat
Jack Sprat could eat no fat
His wife could eat no lean
And so between them both you see
They licked the platter clean
Jerry Hall
Jerry Hall
He's so small
A rat could eat him
Hat and all
Jolly Miller
There was a jolly miller once
Lived on the river Dee
He worked and sang from morn till night
No lark as blithe than he
And this the burden of his song
Forever used to be
'I care for nobody, no, not I
Since nobody care for me'
