The Green Grass Grew All Around

Madeline L Pots

Lyrics:

There once was a tree (there once was a tree)
In a hole in the ground (in a hole in the ground),
The cutest little tree (the cutest little tree)
You ever did see.
The tree in the hole and hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on this tree (now on this tree)
There was a branch (there was a branch),
The cutest little branch (the cutest little branch)
You ever did see.
The branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on this branch (now on this branch)
There was a twig (there was a twig),
The cutest little twig (the cutest little twig)
You ever did see.
The twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on this twig (now on this twig)
There was a nest (there was a nest,
The cutest little nest (the cutest little nest)
You ever did see.
The nest on the twig and the twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now in the nest (now in this nest)
There was an egg (there was an egg),
The cutest little egg (the cutest little egg)
You ever did see.
The egg in the nest and the nest on the twig and the twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on the egg (now on this egg)
There sat a bird (there sat a bird,
The cutest little bird (the cutest little bird
You ever did see.
The bird on the egg and the egg in the nest and the nest on the twig and the twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on this brid (now on this bird)
There was a feather (there was a feather),
The cutest little feather (the cutest little feather)
You ever did see.
The feather on the bird and the bird on the egg and the egg in the nest and the nest on the twig and the twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now on this feather (now on this feather)
There was a bug (there was a bug?)
The cutest little bug (a cute little bug?)
You ever did see.
The bug on the feather and the feather on the bird and the bird on the egg and the egg in the nest and the nest on the twig and the twig on the branch and the branch on the tree and the tree in the hole and the hole in the ground
And The Green Grass Grew All Around all around,
The Green Grass Grew All Around.

Now


This is a very old song that is fun to sing and to try to remember all the lines. I learned it when I was just a little girl.
