Over in the Meadow lyrics: Over in the meadow In the sand in the sun Lived a kind mother turtle And her little turtle one "Wink!" said the mother "I wink!" said the one So they winked and they blinked In the sand in the sun Over in the meadow Where the stream runs blue Lived an shiny mother fish And her little fishes two "Swim!" said the mother "We swim!" said the two So they swam and they swam Where the stream runs blue Over in the meadow In a hole in a tree Lived a wise mother owl And her little owls three "Hoot!" said the mother "We hoot!" said the three So they hooted and hooted Near a hole in the tree Over in the meadow In a lodge near the shore Lived a brown mother beaver And her little beavers four "Dive!" said the mother "We dive!" said the four So they dove and they splashed By the lodge near the shore Over in the meadow In a snug beehive Lived a mother honey bee And her little bees five "Buzz!" said the mother "We buzz!" said the five So they buzzed and they hummed In the snug beehive Over in the meadow In a nest built of sticks Lived a black mother crow And her little crows six "Caw!" said the mother "We caw!" said the six So they cawed and they called In their nest built of sticks Over in the meadow When the clock strikes eleven There's a noisy mother cricket And her little crickets seven "Chirp!" said the mother "We chirp!" said the seven So they chirped cheery notes When the clock struck eleven Over in the meadow By the old mossy gate Lived a scaly mother lizard And her little lizards eight "Bask!" said the mother "We bask!" said the eight So they basked in the sun On the old mossy gate Over in the meadow Where the quiet pools shine Lived a green mother frog And her little froggies nine "Croak!" said the mother "We croak!" said the nine So they croaked and they splashed Where the quiet pools shine Over in the meadow In a nice little den Lived a gray mother spider And her little spiders ten "Spin!" said the mother "We spin!" said the ten So they spun lacy webs In their nice little den Rock ‘N Learn has videos for kids of all ages.
