My Little Rooster and Go Round the Mountain- Two Fun Little Musicians Songs

Here are the words to two songs that the Little Musicians class has been singing.

Now you can sing them at home too!

These songs are easy to sing, teach body awareness and improvisation.

My Little Rooster

Now I love my little rooster and my rooster loves me,
I'm gonna cherish that rooster 'neath the green bay tree;
My little rooster goes cock-a-doodle-doo, doodle-doo, doodle-doo.

And I love my little hen and my little hen loves me,
I'm gonna cherish that hen 'neath the green bay tree,
My little hen goes "cluck, cluck,"
My little rooster goes "cock-a-doodle-doo, doodle-doo, doodle-doo."

And I love my little piggy and my piggy loves me, etc.
My little pig goes "oink, oink,"
My little hen goes "cluck, cluck,"
My little rooster goes "cock-a-doodle-doo, doodle-doo, doodle-doo."

And I love my little duck and my duckling loves me, etc.
My little duck goes "quack, quack," (add pig,  hen, rooster)

And I love my little dog, and my doggie loves me, etc.
My little dog goes "bow, wow," (add duck, pig, hen, rooster)



Go 'Round the Mountain

Go 'round the mountain;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum.
Go 'round the mountain;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum dum.

Show me your fingers;   (wiggle your fingers)
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum.
Show me your fingers;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum dum.

Show me your elbow;   (tap your elbow)
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum.
Show me your elbow;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum dum.

Show me your hips;    (swish your hips)
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum.
Show me your hips;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum dum.

Show me your feet;    (tap your foot)
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle-dum.
Show me your feet;
To-di-diddle-dum, to-di-diddle,dum dum.

Ask your children to suggest other body parts.  Continue the activity by making up further verses.

Sing these songs with your children!  You will have fun together as well as practicing music.
