Ten Little Injuns

Ten little Injuns standin' in a line,One toddled home and then there were nine;Nine little Injuns swingin' on a gate,One tumbled off and then there were eight.

One little, two little, three little, four little, five little Injun boys; Six little, seven little, eight little, nine little, ten little Injun boys.

Eight little Injuns gayest under heav'n.One went to sleep and then there were seven;Seven little Injuns cuttin' up their tricks,One broke his neck and then there were six.

Six little Injuns kickin' all alive,One kicked the bucket and then there were five;Five little Injuns on a cellar door,One tumbled in and then there were four.

Four little Injuns up on a spree,One got fuddled and then there were three;Three little Injuns out on a canoe,One tumbled overboard and then there were two.

Two little Injuns foolin' with a gun,One shot t'other and then there was one;One little Injun livin' all alone,He got married and then there were none.

This little Injun, with his little wife,Lived in a wigwam the balance of his life;One daddy Injun and a mommy SquawBrought up a family of Ten Injuns more.

One little, two little, three little, four little, five little Injun more; Six little, seven little, eight little, nine little, ten little Injun more.
