Burl Ives - The little White Duck lyrics

Burl Ives - The little White Duck

There's a little white duck, sitting in the water

A little white duck, doing what he oughter

He took a bite of a lily pad

Flapped his wings and he said "I'm glad

I'm a little white duck sitting in the water

Quack, Quack, Quack."

There's a little green frog swimming in the water

A little green frog, doing what he oughter

He jumped right off of the lily pad

That the little duck bit and he said "I'm glad

I'm a little green frog swimming in the water

Glug, Glug, Glug."

There's a little black bug floating on the water

A little black bug doing what he oughter

He tickled the frog on the lily pad

That the little duck bit and he said, "I'm glad

I'm a little black bug floating in the water

Bzz, Bzzz, Bzzz."

There's a little red snake playing in the water

A little red snake doing what he oughter

He frightened the duck and the frog so bad

He ate up the bug and he said, "I'm glad

I'm a little red snake playing in the water

Hiss, Hisss, Hisss."

Now there's nobody left sitting in the water

Nobody left doing what they oughter

There's nothing left but the lily pad

The duck and the frog ran away, I'm sad

"Cause there's nobody left sitting in the water,

Boo! Hoo, Hoo...
