There's mutiny in the nursery
Mother Goose is on the loose
Her kids are swingin' out
There's mutiny in the nursery
And music in the nursery
Mother Goose is on the loose
You ought to hear them shout
If you could see miss Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones
If you could see miss Jenny Jones
You'd find her swinging lightly
And lately Mary won't get up
She won't get up, she won't get up
She stays out too late nightly
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
You and I and everyone knows how
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow
How they do it I don't know
But if you hand me my horn
I promise I won't blow no corn
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
But she knows just where to find them
For they all stand around the bend
Waggin' their tails behind them
One little, two little, three little jitterbugs
Four little, five little, six little jitterbugs
Seven little, eight little, nine little jitterbugs
Ten little jitterbug boys
Ten, nine, eight little jitterbugs
Seven, six, five little jitterbugs
Four, three, two little jitterbugs
One little jitterbug girl
Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny
Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny
Swing out, kids, swing out
There was mutiny in the nursery when they all got loose
They began to yell for old Mother Goose
Get on down, all together
Get on down, take a gander
Get on down, struck on home
Don't miss the jamboree
Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny
In the nursery
There's mutiny in the nursery There's mutiny in the nursery Mother Goose is on the loose Her kids are swingin' out There's mutiny in the nursery And music in the nursery Mother Goose is on the loose You ought to hear them shout If you could see miss Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones If you could see miss Jenny Jones You'd find her swinging lightly And lately Mary won't get up She won't get up, she won't get up She stays out too late nightly Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow You and I and everyone knows how Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow How they do it I don't know But if you hand me my horn I promise I won't blow no corn Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep But she knows just where to find them For they all stand around the bend Waggin' their tails behind them One little, two little, three little jitterbugs Four little, five little, six little jitterbugs Seven little, eight little, nine little jitterbugs Ten little jitterbug boys Ten, nine, eight little jitterbugs Seven, six, five little jitterbugs Four, three, two little jitterbugs One little jitterbug girl Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny Swing out, kids, swing out There was mutiny in the nursery when they all got loose They began to yell for old Mother Goose Get on down, all together Get on down, take a gander Get on down, struck on home Don't miss the jamboree Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny In the nursery Explain Request ×
