The Ants Go Marching

Traditional

The ants go marching one by one, Hurrah, hurrah!
The ants go marching one by one, Hurrah, hurrah!
The ants go marching one by one
The little one stops to suck his thumb
And they all go marching down 
To the ground, to get out, of the rain
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

...two…tie her shoe…
…three….climb a tree…
…four…shut the door…
…five…take a dive…

Note: Ants #1 and #2 are shared in this video. Once the tune and actions are learned, add Ants #3-5 to the song.

The lobsters in the sea go pinch...
