Old McDonald

Old McDonald Had a Pond E-I-E-I-O

And in that pond he had a FROG E-I-E-I-O

With a Ribbit, Ribbit here

And a Ribbit, Ribbit there

Here a Ribbit

There a Ribbit

Everywhere a Ribbit, Ribbit

Old McDonald had a pond E-I-E-I-O

Geese honk

Dragonflys quiver

Turtles are silent

Swallows swoop

Herons lunge

Ducks quack
