Lyrics Over in the Meadow - Raffi

Over in the Meadow

Over in the meadow in a pond in the sun
Lived an old mother duck and her little duck one
«Quack,» said the mother
Quack said the one
And they quacked and were happy in their pond in the sun
Over in the meadow in a stream so blue
Lived an old mother fish and her little fish two
«Blip-blip-blip-blip-blip,» said the mother
«Blip-blip,» said the two
And they swam and were happy in the stream so blue
Over in the meadow in a nest in the tree
Lived an old mother bird and her birdies three
And they sang and were happy in their nest in the tree
Over in the meadow on a rock by the shore
Lived and old mother frog and her little frogs four
«Ribbit!»
said the mother
«Ribbit-ribbit-ribbit-ribbit!»
said the four
And they croaked and were happy on the rock by the shore
Over in the meadow in a big beehive
Lived and old mother bee and little bees five
«Bizzip,» said the mother
«Biz-biz-biz-biz-biz,» said the five
And they buzzed and were happy in the big beehive
Over in the meadow in the noonday sun
There was a pretty mother and her baby one
Listen said the mother to the ducks and the bees
To the frogs and the fish and the birds in the trees
«Biz-biz-biz-biz-biz,» said the five
«Ribbit-ribbit-ribbit-ribbit,» said the four
«Blip-blip,» said the two
«Quack!»
said the one
And the little baby laughed just to hear such fun!
