Lyrics

Had a little rooster by the barnyard gate,
That little rooster was my playmate.
That little rooster went cock-a-doodle doo,
Dee doodle dee doodle dee doodle dee doo.

Had a little cat by the barnyard gate,
That little cat was my playmate,
That little cat went meow, meow, meow
That little rooster went cock-a-doodle-doo,
Dee-doodle-dee, doodle-dee, doodle-dee-doo.

Had a little dog … arf, arf, arf,

Had a little duck … quack, quack, quack,

Had a little pig … oink, oink, oink,

Had a little sheep … baa, baa, baa,

Had a little cow … moo, moo, moo,

Had a little horse … neigh, neigh, neigh,
