lyrics

A For The Ant
Alan Mills

A for the Ant and B for the Bee
C for the Cat and D for Doggie
E for the Elephant, F for the Frog
G for the Goat and H for the Hog
I J K come next in line
Skip these three because they're difficult to rhyme
L for the Lamb and M for the Mule
N for the Nanny Goat, O for the Owl
P for the Pole Cat, Q for the Quail
R for the Rat and S for the Snail
T U V come next in line
Skip these three just to save a little time
Next comes W and it's for the Whale
X has a cross and Y has a tail
Z is for Zebra, You can't go wrong
'Cuz this is the end of my silly little song

Z for the Zebra, Y has a tail
X has a cross and W for the Whale
V U T come next in line
Skip these three to save a little time
Next comes S and its for the Snail
R for the rat and Q for the Quail
P for the Pole Cat, O for the Owl
N for the Nanny Goat, M for the Mule
We're half way back to where we began
With a soft woolly coat, it's L for the Lamb
K J I are next in line
Skip these three cuz they're difficult to rhyme
Next comes H and it's for the hog
G for the Goat and F for the Frog
E for the Elephant, D for Doggie
C for the Cat and B for the Bee
Next comes A and it's for the Ant
We started at the back and went to the Front

Repeat first, omitting selected words
