How about

The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah! The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah! The ants go marching one by one, The little one stopped to suck his thumb and they all go marching down to the ground to get out of the rain Bum, bum bum bum bum bum bum,

The ants go marching two by two And the little one stops to tie his shoe,

Three, scratch his knee Four, shut the door, Five, jump and jive Six, pick up sticks Seven, pray to heaven Eight, close the gate Nine, read a rhyme Ten, begin again Etc. Enough!
