Oh me, oh my! The rain is falling all around,
But our umbrellas will keep us dry. It falls on field and tree,
by Eliza Lee Follen
Fivebusy honey bees were resting in the sun
Little Mary was good; The first one said, 'Let us have some fun.'
The weather was fair; The second one said, 'Where shall it be?'
She went with her mother The third one said, 'In the honey tree.'
To taste the freash air. The fourth one said, 'Let's make some honey sweet.'
The fifth one said, 'With pollen on our feet.'
The birds they were singing; The five little busy bees sang their buzzing tune,
Mary chatted away; As they worked at the beehive all that afternoon.
And she was as happy
And merry as they.
The ants came marching
The ants came marching one by one, Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants came marching one by one, Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants came marching one by one
The little one stopped to suck his thumb.
They all go marching down around the town.
Boom, Boom, Boom.
The
ants came marching two by two, Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants came marching two by two, Hurrah! Hurrah!
The ants came marching two by two
The little one stopped to tie his shoe.
They all go marching down around the town.
Boom, Boom, Boom.
