I'm a Little Chick
(tune: I'm a Little Teapot)

I'm a little chick, yellow and soft.
I was born in a hayloft.
I play all day and I cheep, cheep, cheep
Then back to the barn where I sleep, sleep, sleep.

Ten Fluffy Chicks
Five eggs and five eggs
That makes ten.
Sitting on top is Mother Hen.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
What do you see?
Ten fluffy chickens
As yellow as can be!

Cluck, Cluck
(tune: Baa, Baa Black Sheep)

Cluck, cluck red hen
Have you any chicks?
Yes sir! Yes sir!
I have six!
Two that are yellow
Two that are brown
Two that are flying upside down!

Cluck, cluck red hen
Have you any chicks?
Yes sir! Yes sir!
I have six!

Cluck, Cluck!
Cluck, cluck went the little red hen one day
Cluck, cluck went the little red hen
Cluck, cluck went the little red hen one day
And her chicks went cheep, cheep, cheep!
