Sheep In the Fold
One sheep two sheep three sheep go
Four sheep five sheep go where the others go
Six sheep seven sheep walk into the door
Seven sheep going to where they do not know
Eight sheep nine sheep walk into the door
Ten sheep eleven ’cause the other ten do
Twelve sheep thirteen see stains upon the floor
Fourteen fifteen march to where they have to go
Sixteen, seventeen heads start to roll
Eighteen, nineteen sheep have left the fold
Twenty many more follow as they go
Following stains and sheep heads upon the floor.
