Lyrics

The ants go marching one by one, hoorah, hoorah, (repeat)
The ants go marching one by one,
The little one stops to have some fun
And they all go marching down in the ground
And up the drain and out in the rain.

…two by two, The little one stops to tie his shoe…

…three by three…climb a tree…

…four by four…shut the door…

…five by five…take a dive…

…six by six…pick up sticks…

…seven by seven…wave to heaven…

…eight by eight…shut the gate…

…nine by nine…check the time…

…ten by ten…say “the end”…
