Kittens

A black-nosed kitten
will slumber all day,

A white-nosed kitten is ever
glad to play,

A yellow-nosed kitten
will answer to your call,
And a gray-nosed kitten
I wouldn't have at all!

Bat

Bat, bat,
Come under my hat,
And I'll give you a slice of bacon;
And when I bake
I'll give you a cake,
If I am not mistaken.

I ride my pony everywhere

I ride my pony everywhere,
You'd know him by his shaggy hair.
He's just as kind as he can be,
And gladly goes about with me.

A Peanut Sat

A peanut sat
On a railway track 
His heart was all a flutter 
Around the bend came number ten 
Choo Choo  
Peanut butter

Two by two

The animals went in two by two.
A couple of hippos, a pair of gnu,
Two spectacled bears from Lima, Peru
And even, it's said, a push-me-pull-you.

But, right at the back of the very long queue
Stood a herd of wild young caribou.
The bouncers looked angry, 'Hey you, Yes You'
'No stag parties allowed, so off with you, SHOO!'

Chicken

Chicken, chicken,
You can't cluck too much for me.
Chicken, chicken,
Now come down off of that tree.
Chicken, chicken, chicken,
You can't cluck too much for me.

"C" is for the little chick
"H" for the momma hen
"I" cause I love that bird
"C" for the cluck, cluck
"K" for the Kackle, Kackle
"E" and the little "N"
C-H-I-C-K-E-N
That's the way to spell chicken
That's my friend, the chicken.

A-Tisket A-Tasket

A-tisket a-tasket
A green and yellow basket
I wrote a letter to my love
And on the way I dropped it

I dropped it, I dropped it
And on the way I dropped it
A little boy (girl) picked it up
And put it in his (her) pocket

Animal Fair

I went to the animal fair,
The birds and the beasts were there,
The big baboon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair,
The monkey bumped the skunk,
And sat on the elephant's trunk;
The elephant sneezed and fell to his knees,
And that was the end of the monk,
The monk, the monk, the monk,
The monk, the monk, the monk.

All the pretty little horses

Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
Go to sleepy little baby.
When you wake, you'll have cake,
And all the pretty little horses.

Black and bay, dapple and grey,
Coach and six little horses,
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
Go to sleepy little baby.
Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
Go to sleepy little baby,
When you wake, you'll have cake,
And all the pretty little horses.

Way down yonder, down in the meadow,
There's a poor wee little lamby.
The bees and the butterflies pickin' at its eyes,
The poor wee thing cried for her mammy.

Hush-a-bye, don't you cry,
Go to sleepy little baby.
When you wake, you'll have cake,
And all the pretty little horses.

Baa, Baa, Black Sheep

Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir,
Three bags full.

One for the master,
One for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.

Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir,
Three bags full.

Jingle bells (Christmas song)

Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh, 
Over the fields we go, laughing all the way. 
Bells on bob-tails ring, making spirits bright, 
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight. 

Chorus: 
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! 
O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. 
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! 
O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. 

A day or two ago, I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright, was seated by my side; 
The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot; 
He got into a drifted bank and we got upsot

Chorus 

A day or two ago, the story I must tell
I went out on the snow, and on my back I fell; 
A gent was riding by, in a one-horse open sleigh 
He laughed as there I sprawling lie but quickly drove away 

Chorus 

Now the ground is white, go it while you're young 
Take the girls tonight, and sing this sleighing song; 
Just get a bob-tailed bay, two-forty as his speed 
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack, you'll take the lead 

Chorus

All I Want for Christmas

Every body Pauses and stares at me
These two teeth are gone as you can see
I don't know just who to blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth!

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas."
It seems so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only whistle

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth.

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"

Carols of the Bells

Украинская рождественская колядка "Щедрик" на английском языке

Hark how the bells,
sweet silver bells,
all seem to say,
throw cares away
Christmas is here,
bringing good cheer,
to young and old,
meek and the bold,
Ding dong ding dong
that is their song
with joyful ring
all caroling
One seems to hear
words of good cheer
from everywhere
filling the air

Oh how they pound,
raising the sound,
o'er hill and dale,
telling their tale,
Gaily they ring
while people sing
songs of good cheer,
Christmas is here,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
On on they send,
on without end,
their joyful tone
to every home
Ding dong ding... dong!
