The Little Red Hen
Jackie Cytrynbaum This song is available on Fran Avni's Artichokes and Brussel Sprouts.
The little red hen was going for a walk
That’s when she saw some wheat near a rock The little red hen was going for a walk That’s when she saw some wheat near a rock She picked it up, dusted it clean saying. “This is even better than a lima bean.” What I have to do to plant this thing Is dig a hole as round as a ring Drop it in, cover it up Does anybody out there want to help me out? The little duck said, “Not I quack, quack The little pig said, “Not I oink, oink The little cat said, “Not I meow, meow So the little red hen said, “I’ll do it somehow. She didn’t complain, and she didn’t moan The little red hen did it all alone. “It’s time to cut the wheat and take it to the mill They’ll grind it into flour way up on the hill Then carry it home, a sack or two Does anybody out there want to help me out? Refrain: The little duck said, “Not I quack, quack The little pig said, “Not I oink, The little cat said, “Not I meow, meow So the little red hen said, “I’ll do it somehow. She didn’t complain, and she didn’t moan The little red hen did it all alone. “To bake some bread, an egg or two, Use the flour from the wheat that we grew Put it in the oven and wait till it’s done Does anybody out there want to help me out? Refrain: The little duck said, “Not I quack, quack The little pig said, “Not I oink, oink The little cat said, “Not I meow, meow So the little red hen said, “I’ll do it somehow. She didn’t complain, and she didn’t moan The little red hen did it all alone. Now that the bread is ready to eat, I’m glad that I found that little bit of wheat. It’s time to sit down and enjoy this feast Does anybody out there want to help me out? Refrain: The little duck said, I do quack, The little pig said, “I do oink, oink The little cat said, “I do meow, meow But the little red hen said, “I’ll do it somehow. She didn’t complain, and she didn’t moan The little red hen ate it all alone.
