If Ice in November
If ice in November will bear a duck,
Nothing comes after but sleet and muck
.variant
Frost in November to hold a duck
The rest of the winter is slush and muck.
Six little ducks
Audio: NIEHS
Six little ducks
That I once knew
Fat ones, skinny ones,
Fair ones, too
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack,
Quack, quack, quack
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack.
Down to the river
They would go
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble,
To and fro
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack,
Quack, quack, quack
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack.
Back from the river
They would come
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble,
Ho, hum, hum
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack,
Quack, quack, quack
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack.
Into the water they would dive
Over and under the other five
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack.
Home from the river they would go
Wibble wobble, wibble wobble,
Ho hum hum
But the one little duck
With the feather on his back
He led the others
With a quack, quack, quack.
Five Little Ducks
Five Little Ducks
Written By: Dorothy Aldis
Five little ducks
Went out one day
Over the hill and far away
Mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack.”
But only four little ducks came back.

But none of the five little ducks came back.
Sad mother duck
Went out one day
Over the hill and far away
The sad mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack.”
And all of the five little ducks came back.
Alternate verse:
Five little ducks
went out to play
Over the hills and far away
Papa duck said,
“QUACK! QUACK! QUACK!”
Five little ducks came swimming back.
The Little White Duck
The Little White Duck
Written by: Bernard Zaritzky and Walt Barrows
There’s a little white duck (quack)
Sitting in the water.
A little white duck (quack)
Doing what he oughter.
He took a bite of a lily pad,
Flapped his wings and he said,
“I’m glad I’m a little white duck,
Sitting in the water.”
Quack, Quack, Quack.
There’s a little green frog (glumph)
Swimming in the water.
A little green frog (glumph)
Doing what he oughter.
He jumped right off of the lily pad
The little duck bit.
And he said “I’m glad,
I’m a little green frog,
Swimming in the water,
Glumph, Glumph, Glumph.”
There’s a little black bug (bzz)
Floating on the water.
A little black bug (bzz)
Doing what he oughter.
He tickled the frog on the lily pad
That the little duck bit.
And he said, “I’m glad,
I’m a little black bug,
Floating on the water.
Bzz! Guzz! Bzz!”
There’s a little red snake (hiss)
Playing in the water.
A little red snake (hiss)
Doing what he oughter,
He frightened the duck and the frog so bad,
He ate the little bug,
And he said, “I’m glad
I’m a little red snake,
Playing in the water.
Hiss, Hiss, Hiss.”
Now there’s nobody left
Sitting in the water
Nobody left
Doing what they oughter
There’s nothing left but the lily pad
The duck and the frog
Ran away – I’m sad
‘Cause there’s nobody left
Sitting in the water
Boo! Hoo! Hoo!
DUCKS AND DRAKES
A duck and a drake,
And a halfpenny cake,
With a penny to pay the old baker.
A hop and a scotch
Is another notch,
Slitherum, slatherum, take her.
