The Ants go marching one by one…

Lyrics

The ants go marching 1 by 1, hoorah hoorah,

The ants go marching 1 by 1, the little one stops to suck his thumb

CHORUS: And they all go marching DOWN (where) to the GROUND (why) to get out of the rain BOOM BOOM BOOM. The ants go marching 2 by 2, hooray hooray The ants go marching 2 by 2, hooray hooray The ants go marching 2 by 2, the little one stops to tie his shoe CHORUS Insert numbers and actions as follows- 3 scratch his knee 4 close the door 5 take a dive 6 pick up sticks 7 count to eleven 8 roller skate 9 pass some time 10 start all over again!

Actions

words in (*) in chorus should be right between by only some of group.

Comments

I have started the song- just fill in the numbers and the actions where they go.- This is a fun song to a patriotic tune.
