One More River

 
The animals went in one by one,
There's one more river to cross.
The elephant chewing a caraway bun,
There's one more river to cross.
One more river and that's the river of Jordan,
One more river, and that's the river to cross.
The animals went in two by two
The crocodile and the kangaroo.
The animals went in three by three,
The tall giraffe and the tiny flea.
The animals went in four by four,
The big hippopotamus stuck in the door.
The animals went in five by five,
The bees mistook the bear for a hive.
The animals went in six by six
The monkey was up to his usual tricks.
The animals went in seven by seven,
Said the ant to the antelope, "Who are you shoven'?"
The animals went in eight by eight,
Some were early and some were late.
The animals went in nine by nine,
They all formed fours and marched in a line.
The animals went in ten by ten.
If you want any more you must sing it again.
