There Were Ten In The Bed Lyrics
There were ten in the bed
And the little one said,
‘Roll over! Roll over!’
So they all rolled over
And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout, ‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a knot in your pyjamas,
Single beds are only made for
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight –
There were nine in the bed
And the little one said,
‘Roll over! Roll over!’
So they all rolled over
And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout, ‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a knot in your pyjamas,
Single beds are only made for
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven –
There were eight in the bed
And the little one said,
‘Roll over! Roll over!’
So they all rolled over
And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout, ‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a knot in your pyjamas,
Single beds are only made for
One, two, three, four,
five, six –
There were seven in the bed
And the little one said,
‘Roll over! Roll over!’
So they all rolled over
And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout,
‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a

Single beds are only

One, two, three, four, five –
There were six in the bed

And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout,
‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a

Single beds are only
made for
One, two, three, four –
There were five in the bed
And the little one said,

And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout,
‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie

And one fell out,
And he gave a little scream,
And he gave a little shout, ‘Yahoo!’
Please remember to tie a

There were three in the bed
And the little one said,
