Lyrics

When Billy was one,
He liked to such his thumb.
Thumb-deanna, Thumb-deanna,
Half past one.

2. When Billy was two, he liked to tie his shoes.
Shoes-de-anna, shoes-de-anna, Half past two.

3. …three…climb a tree…

4. …four…shut the door…

5. …five…take no jive…

6. …six…play with sticks…

7. …seven…go to heaven…

8. …eight…roller skate…

9. …nine…climb a vine…

10. …ten…catch a hen…

11. …eleven…go to seven…

12. …twelve…ring the bell…
