Lyrics by Mark Weltner. Sung to the tune of “Little Brown Jug.”
Here comes mouse, she can’t wait, stand with feet together
Jump and open up the gate. jump so feet are just apart enough
for a mouse to crawl through
Bend down low, watch her go. bend over & pretend the mouse crawled through
Jump them closed and stand up straight. jump your feet closed
repeat, making your feet jump further and further apart: cat, dog, and finally cow.
