One, Two, Buckle My Shoe

One, Two, Buckle My Shoe

One, two, buckle my shoe, Three, four, close the bedroom door, Five, six, no more tricks, Seven, eight, dreams can't wait, Nine, ten, dream time then! Little Benny yawned so wide, Teddy Bear right by his side. "Count with me," said Benny bright, "Numbers help me sleep at night." One white sheep went bouncing by, Two more leaped across the sky. Three soft clouds began to sail, Four stars twinkled, dim and pale. Five wise owls hooting "Hoo!" Six fireflies danced and flew. Seven crickets sang their tune, Eight night winds beneath the moon. Nine dream ships rocked to and fro, Ten waves splashed both high and low. Eleven angels, shining bright, Twelve sweet whispers in the night. Thirteen woodland creatures small, Fourteen answered slumber's call. Fifteen pillows, fluffy-white, Sixteen wishes for good night. Seventeen drops of gentle rain, Eighteen dreams on sleepy lane. Nineteen yawns from sleepy head, Twenty tucked safe in his bed. Twenty-one... and Benny dozed, Both his sleepy eyes now closed. Off to dreamland, soft and deep, Where the counting helped him sleep. In his dreams he wandered free, Counting wonders by the sea. Dragons gentle, soft and kind, Left all worries far behind. When your eyelids grow so heavy, Count along with sleepy Benny. Every number, soft and low, Helps your peaceful dreams to grow. Close your eyes, let numbers soar, One through twenty-one, and more. Counting is the sweetest way, To end each busy, happy day!

One, Two, Buckle My Shoe Nursery Rhyme Original lyrics

One, two, buckle my shoe;
Three, four, knock at the door;
Five, six, pick up sticks;
Seven, eight, lay them straight;
Nine, ten, a big fat hen;
Eleven, twelve, dig and delve;
Thirteen, fourteen, maids a-courting;
Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen;
Seventeen, eighteen, maids in waiting;
Nineteen, twenty, my plate's empty.
