The Good Morning Train:

The Good Morning Train is coming
How are you? Choo-choo!
The Good Morning Train is coming
How are you? Choo-choo!
The Good Morning Train is coming
The Good Morning Train is coming
The Good Morning Train is coming
How are you? Choo-choo!

The Itsy Bitsy Spider:

The itsy bitsy spider
Went up the water spout
Down came the rain and
Washed the spider out
Out came the sun and
Dried up all the rain
And the itsy bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again

Up and Up the Candlestick:

Up and up the candlestick
went little Mousie Brown
He had a bit of candle
But he couldn’t get back down
He yelled out, “Grandma! Grandma!”
But Grandma was in town
So he made himself into a ball
And rolled himself right down.

Head and Shoulders, Baby, 1 2 3:

Head and shoulders, baby, 1 2 3
Head and shoulders, baby, 1 2 3
Head and shoulders, baby, 1 2 3
Head and shoulders, baby, 1 2 3

Verse 2: Back and tummy
Verse 3: Knees and toes

My Scarf Has Four Corners:

My scarf it has four corners
Four corners has my scarf
If it did not have four corners
It would not be my scarf
1…2…3…4!

Verse 2: My cape
Verse 3: My pillow

Come Under My Umbrella:

Come under my umbrella
Umbrella, umbrella
Come under my umbrella
It’s starting to rain
With thunder and lightning
And thunder
And lightning
Come under my umbrella
It’s starting to rain

Dickery Dean:

What is the matter with Dickery Dean?
He jumped right in to the washing machine!
Chug, chug, chug, chug,
Chug, chug, chug, chug
Nothing's the matter with Dickery Dean
He jumped in dirty, and he came out clean!

Hot Cross Buns:

Hot cross buns
Hot cross buns
One a penny
Two a penny
Hot cross buns

Wheels on the Bus:

The wheels on the bus go round and round
Move your rhythm sticks around in a circle like you’re pedaling a bike
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All through the town

The money on the bus goes clink, clink, clink
Tap your sticks lightly together
Clink clink clink, clink clink clink
The money on the bus goes clink, clink, clink
All through the town

The wipers on the bus goes swish, swish, swish
Hold your sticks together and move them back and forth like wipers
Swish swish swish, swish swish swish
The wipers on the bus goes swish, swish, swish
All through the town

Open and close [pull sticks apart and then snap them together]

The Ants Go Marching:

The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah.
The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah.
The ants go marching one by one,
The little one stops to suck his thumb.
And they all go marching down,
To the ground, to get out of the rain.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Verse 2: Two by two…tie her shoe
Verse 3: Three by three…climb a tree

Alabama Mississippi:

Alabama, Mississippi
Alabama, New Orleans
Alabama, Mississippi
Shake it on down to New Orleans
Shake, Shake, Shake
Shake it baby
Shake, Shake, Shake
Shake it baby
Shake, Shake, Shake
Shake it baby
Shake it on down to New Orleans

The More We Get Together:

The more we get together
Together, together
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be
Cause your friends are my friends
And my friends are your friends
The more we get together
The happier we’ll be
