Lyrics
(Folk song)
Creeping, creeping little flea
Up my leg and past my knee
To my tummy on he goes
Past my chin and to my nose.
Now he’s creeping down my chin
To my tummy once again,
Down my leg and past my knee
To my toe that little flea.
Gotcha!
Motions
This is often a song to sing for babies (On “Gotcha!” tickle the baby’s toes).
Students can move fingers up and down the body or in the air as the melody goes up and down. On “Gotcha!” clap hands (as if smashing a flea).
