We’re going to Kentucky,
We’re going to the fair.
We’ll see a señorita with flowers in her hair,
Oh, shake it, shake it, shake it!
Shake it if you can.
Shake it like a milk shake and hold it in your hand!

Jack and Jill went up the hill

To fetch a pail of water

Jack fell down and bumped his crown

And Jill came tumbling after!

Shake your shakers, shake, shake, shake

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

Shake your shakers, shake, shake, shake

Shake your shakers!

Verses: High, Low, Fast, Slow

(Tune of London Bridges)

Baa, baa, black sheep have you any wool?

Yes, sir, yes, sir, three bags full.

One for my master, one for my 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.

If you're happy and you know it, give a shake

If you're happy and you know it and you really want to show it

If you're happy and you know it, give a shake

Give a clap,

Give a tap, etc.

This is big big big

This is small small small

This is short short short

This is tall tall tall

This is fast fast fast

This is slow slow slow

This is yes yes yes

This is no no no

Shake it, shake it shake it high.

Shake it, shake it shake it low.

Shake it, shake it in a circle.

Shake it, shake it on your toe.

Hickory, dickory, dock

The mouse ran up the clock,

The clock struck one,

The mouse ran down.

Hickory dickory, dock.

Shake your egg along with me

Along with me, along with me

Shake your egg along with me

Now put it on your tummy!

(head, knee, ear)

Hey diddle diddle,

The cat and the fiddle,

The cow jumped over the moon,

The little dog laughed to see such sport,

And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Peas porridge hot,

Peas porridge cold,

Peas porridge in the pot!

Nine days old!

Some like it hot,

Some like it cold,

Some like it in the pot, nine days old!

1, 2, shake it on your shoe

3, 4, shake it on the floor

5, 6, stir and mix

7, 8, stand up straight

9, 10 wave to your friends

This is the way we touch our toes,

touch our toes, touch our toes!

This is the way we touch our toes,

early in the morning!

Verses: elbows, knees

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

How I wonder what you are!

Up above the world so high,

Like a diamond in the sky

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

How I wonder what you are!

Skinnamarink e-dink e-dink

Skinnamarink e-doo

I love you.

(Repeat)

I love you in the morning

and in the afternoon.

I love you in the evening

underneath the moon.

Oh, Skinnamarink e-dink e-dink

Skinnamarink e-doo

I love you. (repeat)

The farmer in the dell

Heigh ho the derry-o

The farmer in the dell

He jumped right into the washing machine.

He jumped in dirty and he came out clean.

I wake up my hands with a clap, clap, clap
A clap, clap, clap, a clap, clap, clap

Wake up feet and wiggle, wiggle, wiggle
Wake up feet, wake up feet
Wake up and wiggle in the morning.

Tony Chestnut knows I love you

Tony knows, Tony knows

Tony Chestnut knows I love you

That’s what Tony Chestnut knows.

A creepy, crawly monster

Is coming straight at me.

Closer and closer,

He climbs upon my knee.

Up to my shoulder the monster’s much too near.

“Happy Halloween”

He whispers in my ear.
(tune of Itsy Bitsy Spider)
