Over in the meadow

In the sand in the sun

Lived an old mother toadie

And her little toadie one

"Wink " said the mother;

"I wink " said the one

So they winked and they blinked

In the sand in the sun

Over in the meadow

Where the stream runs blue

Lived an old mother fish

And her little fishes two

"Swim " said the mother;

"We swim " said the two

So they swam and they leaped

Where the stream runs blue

Over in the meadow

In a hole in a tree

Lived an old daddy bluebird

And his little birdies three

"Sing " said the daddy;

"We sing " said the three

So they sang and were glad

In a hole in the tree

Over in the meadow

In the reeds on the shore

Lived an old moma muskrat

And her little ratties four

"Dive " said the moma;

"We dive " said the four

So they dived and they burrowed

In the reeds on the shore

Over in the meadow

In a snug beehive

Lived a daddy honey bee

And his little bees five

"Buzz " said the daddy;

"We buzz " said the five

So they buzzed and they hummed

In the snug beehive
