The Cuckoo

Cuckoo, cuckoo, what do you do?
In April I open my mail,
In May I sing all day.

In June I change my tune,
In July I prepare to fly,
In August away I must

Babyland

How many miles to babyland?
Anyone can tell.
Up one flight, to your right,
Please to rig the bell.


What do they do in babyland?
Dream and wake and play,
Laugh and crow, fonder grow,
Jolly times have they.

Dear Baby, Lie Still

Hush-a-bye, baby, lie still with thy daddy,
The mammy has gone to the mill,
To get some meal, to make a cake,
So pray, my dear baby, lie still.

Clap, Clap Handies

Clap, clap handies,
Mummy's wee one.

Clap, clap handies,
Till daddy comes homes,
Home to his bonny wee baby.

Clap, clap handies,
My bonny wee one.

Round and Round the Garden

Round and round the garden,
Like a teddy bear.

One steps, two steps,
Tickle you under there.

Catch Him Crow

Catch him, crow! Carry him, kite!
Take him away till the apples are ripe.

When they are ripe and ready to fall,
Here comes baby, apples and all.

Up, Up, Up

Here we go up, up, up.
And here we go down, down, down.

Here we go backwards and forwards,
And here we go round and round.

All The Pretty Little Horses

Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
Go to sleep little baby.

When you wake, you shall have
All the pretty little horses.

Black and bays, dapples and greys,
Coach and six little horses.
