Lyrics
(Traditional chant)
There was a little turtle,
He lived in a box.
He swam in a puddle,
He climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at a mosquito,
He snapped at a flea.
He snapped at a minnow,
He snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito,
He caught the flea.
He caught the minnow,
But he didn’t catch me!

This doesn’t have a melody; it is a chant.
