Miss Polly Had a Dolly
Miss Polly had a dolly who was sick, sick, sick
So she telephoned the Doctor to come quick,
quick, quick
The Doctor came with his bag
and his hat
And he knocked on the door
With a rat-a-tat-tat
He looked at the dolly and he shook his head
He said Miss Polly put her straight to bed
He wrote on his paper for a pill, pill, pill
I’ll be back in the morning
Yes I will, will, will

Dingle Dangle Scarecrow
When all the cows were sleeping
and the sun had gone to bed,
Up jumped the scarecrow
and this is what he said,
“I’m a dingle dangle scarecrow
with a flippy floppy hat,
I can shake my hands like this
and shake my feet like that.”
When all the hens were roosting
and the moon behind the cloud
Up jumped the scarecrow
and shouted very loud,
“I’m a dingle dangle scarecrow
with a flippy floppy hat,
I can shake my hands like this
and shake my feet like that.”
Hokey Cokey
You put your right hand in
Your right hand out
In, out, in, out
Shake it all about.
You do the hokey-cokey
And you turn around.
That’s what it’s all about.
Chorus
Whoa, the hokey-cokey
Whoa, the hokey-cokey
Whoa, the hokey-cokey
Knees bent, arms stretched, rah, rah, rah!
You put your left hand in
Your left hand out
In, out, in, out
Shake it all about.
You do the hokey-cokey
And you turn around.
That’s what it’s all about.
Chorus
You put your right foot in
Your right foot out
In, out, in, out
Shake it all about.
You do the hokey-cokey
And you turn around.
That’s what it’s all about.
Chorus
You put your left foot in
Your left foot out
In, out, in, out
Shake it all about.
You do the hokey-cokey
And you turn around.
That’s what it’s all about.
Chorus
You put your whole self in
Your whole self out
In, out, in, out
Shake it all about.
You do the hokey-cokey
And you turn around.
