Five Little Bats
Five Little Bats were hanging from a tree,
Teasing Mr. Ghost "you can't catch me, you can't catch me!"
Along came Mr. Ghost as quiet as can be..
He said "Boo!", scaring that bat right out of the tree.
Repeat 4,3,2,1

5 Little Bats
5 little bats went on a flight
By the light of the moon one night.
Mama bat said squeak, squeak, squak!
But only 4 little bats came back
Repeat 4,3,2,1
Sad mama bat went on a flight
By the light of the moon one night.
Mama bat said squeak, squeak, squak!
And all of 5 little bats came back!
