Johnny Works with One Hammer

Lyrics

(Folk song)

1. Johnny works with one hammer,
One hammer, one hammer,
Johnny works with one hammer,
Then he works with two.

2. Johnny works with two hammers,
Two hammers, two hammers,
Johnny works with two hammers,
Then he works with three.

3. Johnny works with three hammers,
Three hammers, three hammers,
Johnny works with three hammers,
Then he works with four.

4. Johnny works with four hammers,
Four hammers, four hammers,
Johnny works with four hammers,
Then he works with five.

5. Johnny works with five hammers,
Five hammers, five hammers,
Johnny works with five hammers,
Then he goes to sleep.

Motions

1. Keep the steady beat by pounding fists in the air like a pretend hammer.
2. Two hands pound fists like a hammer.
3. Two hands pound fists and one foot stomps.
4. Two hands pound fists and both feet march.
5. Two hands pound fists, both feet march, and head nods.
At the end, pretend to sleep.

Recorder Notes G, A, B, D'
