GREEN GRASS GREW ALL AROUND

Once there was a tree, prettiest little tree,
Did you ever see a tree?
Tree in the ground,
And the green grass growing all around, all a round,
The green grass growing all around.

Once there was a branch, prettiest little branch,
Did you ever see a branch?
Branch on the tree,
Tree in the ground,
And the green grass growing all around, all a round,
The green grass growing all around.

(similarly until end:)

Flea on the feather,
Feather on the wing,
Wing on the bird,
Bird on the egg,
Egg in the nest,
Nest on the leaf,
Leaf on the twig,
Twig on the bough,
Bough on the limb,
Limb on the branch,
Branch on the tree,
Tree in the ground,
And the green grass growing all around, all a round,
The green grass growing all around.

Sometimes, if there was time, there would be "a leg on the flea, a foot on
the leg, a toe on the foot, a nail on the toe, etc."
