And I’ll turn my head towards Mexico On top of spaghetti (On top of Old Smokey) On top of spaghetti, all covered with cheese, I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed. It rolled off the table, and onto the floor, And then my poor meatball rolled out of the door. It rolled down the garden, and under a bush, And then my poor meatball was nothing but mush! The mush was as tasty, as tasty could be, And the very next summer it grew into a tree. The tree was all covered, all covered with moss, And on it grew meatballs, all covered with sauce. So if you have spaghetti, all covered with cheese, Hold onto your meatball, 'cause someone might sneeze. One finger one thumb keep moving One finger one thumb keep moving x3 We’ll all be merry and bright
Stand up sit down keep moving.. One finger one thumb, an arm and a leg, a nod of the head Stand up turn round sit down keep moving We’ll all be merry and bright!

Two men went to mow Went to mow a meadow Two men, One man and his dog spot, Two sausage rolls and a bottle of pop (make up you own continuation here?) Went to mow a meadow

When I was one I sucked my thumb The day I went to sea I hopped aboard a pirate’s ship and the pirate said to me Chorus We’re going this way, that way Forward and backwards Over the Irish sea A bottle of rum to fill my tum And that’s the life for me When I was two I buckled my shoe The day I went to sea I hopped aboard a pirate’s ship and the pirate said to me
The Princess Pat ("Egyptian" pose) Lived in a tree (straight line down) She sailed across (wave motion in front of body with one hand) The seven seas (number 7 with your finger, then make a "C" with one hand) She sailed across (wave motion) The channel too (two hands tracing a channel, then number 2 on one hand) And took with her (throw a sack over your shoulder) A rick-a-bamboo! (trace a wavy figure in front of you going down, bend knees as you go)
A rick-a-bamboo (same as before) Now what is that? (point hands) It's something made (bang one fist on top of the other) By the Princess Pat (Egyptian pose) It's red and gold ("twirl" one arm down by your hip) And purple too (flip hands as if you were saying "Oh my gosh!") That's why it's called (cup hands in front of mouth, shout) A rick-a-bamboo! (same as before)
Now Captain Jack (salute) Had a mighty fine crew (salute several times) They sailed across (wave action) The channel too (same as before) But their ship sank (plug nose, one hand over head and waving as you bend knees) And yours will too (point to others in the circle) If you don't take (throw an invisible bag over your shoulder) A rick-a-bamboo! (same as before)

(... and just stop there!) The runaway train T'was in the year of '89 on that old Great Western line, When the winter wind was blowin' shrill, The rails were froze, the wheels were cold, then the air brakes wouldn't hold, And Number 9 came roaring down the hill -- oh! The runaway train came down the track and she blew, The runaway train came down the track and she blew, The runaway train came down the track, her whistle wide and her throttle back, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. The engineer said the train must halt and she blew, The engineer said the train must halt and she blew, The engineer said the train must halt -- he said it was all the fireman's fault, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. The fireman said he rang the bell and she blew, The fireman said he rang the bell and she blew, The fireman said he rang the bell -- the engineer said "You did like h***!" And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. The porter got an awful fright and she blew, The porter got an awful fright and she blew, The porter got an awful fright -- he got so scared he near turned white, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. A donkey was standing in the way and she blew, A donkey was standing in the way and she blew, A donkey was standing in the way and all they found was just his bray, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. The conductor said there'd be a wreck and she blew, The conductor said there'd be a wreck and she blew, The conductor said there'd be a wreck and he felt the chills run up his neck, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew. The runaway train went over the hill and she blew, The runaway train went over the hill and she blew, The runaway train went over the hill and the last we heard she was going still, And she blew, blew, blew, blew, blew.

poings - fists pieds - feet g'noux - knees nez – nose She sailed away She sailed away on a lovely summer day On the back of the crocodile “Oh look” said she “he’s as tame as tame can be, I’ll float him down the Nile” The croc winked an eye as the lady waved goodbye Wearing a happy smile At the end of the ride the lady was inside And the smile was on the crocos’ dile!
She sat on a hillside and strummed her guitar, Strummed her guitar, strummed her guitar. She sat on a hillside and strummed her guitar, Strummed her gui-ta-a-a-ar. He sat down beside her and smoked his cigar... Smoked his cigar, smoked his cigar He sat down beside her and smoked his cigar Smoked his cig-a-a-a-ar, He said that he loved her but, oh! How he lied... They were to be married but somehow she died... He went to her funeral but just for the ride... He went to her grave site and laughed 'til he cried... The grave stone fell over and squish-squash he died... She went up to heaven and flittered and flied... He went to the other place and sizzled and fried... The moral of this song is: don't tell a lie...

Ship sailed from China My ship sailed from China with a cargo of tea, All laden with presents for you and for me. They brought me a fan : just imagine my bliss When I found myself going like this (Like this, like this......)
