    Hurrah for the green, white, yellow, and black.

    Hurrah for the green, white, yellow, and black.
    Up the Pole.
    Down the Pole.
    Monkey chews tobacco.
    If he does.
    Does it matter?.
    The person she stops at says "Yes".
    Or "No" if it is "yes".
    The girl says "yes".
    Stands for "yes".
    And if you do not.
    wish to play.
    Just leave this game.
    Because the King and
    Queen said so.

  2. Die, die, little doggie die
    Die for the sake of your grandmother's eye
    A penny to give to the nurse
    Three ha'pence to put in the purse
    A high swing, a low swing,
    A swing to get off of the rickerdy dickerdy
    High, low, swing swong
