One little brown bird
Up and up he flew
Along came another
One and that made two
Two little brown birds
Sitting on a tree
Along came another one
And that made three
Three little brown birds then
There came one more
What's all the noise about
That made four
Four little brown birds
All aligned in line
Along came another one
And that made five
Five little brown birds
Sitting on some sticks
Along came another one
And that made six
Six little brown birds
Flying up to heaven
Along came another one
And that made seven
Seven little brown birds
Sitting on a gate
Along came another one
And that made eight
Eight little brown birds
Sat on mother's line
Along came another one
And that made nine
Nine little brown birds
Saw a lot of men
So home they flew to father
And that made ten
