A, B, C, tumble down D,
The cat’s in the cupboard and can’t see me.
F for fig,
J for jig,
And N for knuckle bones,
I for John the waterman,
And S for sack of stones.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5!
I caught a hare alive;
6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
I let her go again.
Great A, little a,
Bouncing B!
The cat’s in the cupboard,
And she can’t see.
One’s none;
Two’s some;
Three’s a many;
Four’s a penny;
Five is a little hundred.
A, B, C, and D,
Pray, playmates, agree,
E, F, and G,
Well so it shall be.
J, K, and L,
In peace we will dwell
M, N, and O,
To play let us go.
P, Q, R, and S,
Love may we possess,
W, X, and Y,
Will not quarrel or die.
