Over in the Meadow

Over in the meadow

In a pond in the sun

Lived an old mother duck

And her little duck one

"Quack!" said the mother

"Quack!" said the one

And they quacked and were happy

In the pond in the sun

Over in the meadow

In a stream so blue

Lived an old mother fish

And her little fish two

"Bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop!" said the mother

"Bloop, bloop!" said the two

And they swam and were happy

In the stream so blue

Over in the meadow

In a nest in the tree

Lived an old mother bird

And her birdies three

"Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet!" said the mother

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!" said the three

And they sang and were happy

In the nest in the tree

Over in the meadow

On a rock by the shore

Lived and old mother frog

And her little frogs four

"Ribbit!" said the mother

"Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!" said the four

And they croaked and were happy

On the rock by the shore

Over in the meadow

In a big beehive

Lived and old mother bee

And little bees five

"Bzzzup!" said the mother

"Bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz!" said the five

And the buzzed and were happy

In the big beehive

Over in the meadow

In the noon day sun

There was a pretty mother

And her baby one

"Listen, " said the mother

"To the ducks and the bees

To the frogs and the fish

And the birds in the trees."

"Bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz!" said the five

"Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!" said the four

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!" said the three

"Bloop, bloop!" said the two

"Quack!" said the one

And the little baby laughed

Just to hear such fun!
