Lyrics

HERE WE GO LOOPTY LOO
(Music and arrangement by Winston Apple (traditional lyrics)

Are you ready, Bub?
I’m ready
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready
Alrighty-then
Here we go
Here we go
Here we, here we, here we go

Here we go loopty-loo
Here we go loopty-light
Here we go loopty-loo all on a Saturday night

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack jump over the candlestick
Jack jump high, Jack jump low
Jack jumped over and burned his toe
Come on Jack let’s sing lets it together now –
Here we go loopty-loo
Here we go loopty-light
Here we go loopty-loo all on a Saturday night

Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
And she doesn’t know where to find them
Leave them alone and they’ll come home
Wagging their tails behind them

Hey diddle, diddle, the cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog laughed to see such sport
And the dish ran way with the spoon
Yeah, the dish ran way with the spoon
Singing –
Here we go loopty-loo
Here we go loopty-light
Here we go loopty-loo all on a Saturday night

Little Boy Blue come blow your horn
The sheep’s in the meadow
The cow’s in the corn
Where is the boy who looks after the sheep
He’s under the haycock fast asleep
Will you wake him?
No, not I
For, if I do, he’s sure to cry
And I wouldn’t want to make him cry
Would you want to make him cry?

Here we go loopty-loo
Here we go loopty-light
Here we go loopty-loo all on a Saturday night

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet, eating her curds and whey
Along came a spider who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away

Mary, Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row
Singing here we go loopty-loo
Here we go loopty-light
Here we go loopty-loo all on a Saturday night
On a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
And a Saturday night
Here we go loopty-loo ooh
