The animals went in four by four, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in four by four, hurrah! hurrah!

And they all went into the ark, for to get out of the rain.

The animals went in five by five, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in five by five, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in five by five, they warmed each other to keep alive
And they all went into the ark, for to get out of the rain.

The animals went in six by six, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in six by six, hurrah! hurrah!

And they all went into the ark, for to get out of the rain.

The animals went in seven by seven, hurrah! hurrah!

The animals went in seven by seven, the little pig thought he was going to heaven
And they all went into the ark, for to get out of the rain.
