Mutiny In The Nursery Composer(s): Johnny Mercer Performer(s): Paul Whiteman and various other artists
There's mutiny in the nursery There's mutiny in the nursery Mother Goose is on the loose Her kids are swingin' out
There's mutiny in the nursery And music in the nursery Mother Goose is on the loose You ought to hear them shout
If you could see miss Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones, Jenny Jones If you could see miss Jenny Jones you'd find her swinging lightly And lately Mary won't get up, she won't get up, she won't get up She stays out too late nightly
Oats, peas, beans and barley grow Oats, peas, beans and barley grow You and I and everyone knows how Oats, peas, beans and barley grow
Oats, peas, beans and barley grow How they do it, I don't know But if you hand me my horn I promise I won't blow no corn
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep but she knows just where to find them For they all stand around the bend waggin' their tails behind them
One little, two little, three little jittterbugs Four little, five little, six little jittterbugs Seven little, eight little, nine little jittterbugs Ten little jitterbug boys Ten, nine, eight little jitterbugs Seven, six, five little jitterbugs Four, three, two little jitterbugs One little jitterbug girl
Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny Swing out, kids, swing out
There was mutiny in the nursery when they all got loose They began to yell for old Mother Goose
Get on down, all together Get on down, take a gander Get on down, struck on home Don't miss the jamboree
Mutiny, mutiny, must have mutiny... In the nursery!
