Refrain:

Hey-ho! The rattlin’ bog, the bog down in the valley-oh.
Hey-ho! The rattlin’ bog, the bog down in the valley-oh.

And in that bog there was a tree.......................................
A rare tree, a rattlin’ tree.
And the tree in the bog....................................................
And the bog down in the valley-oh.

stand straight hands at sides

bend your knees

And on that tree there was a limb.....................................
A rare limb, a rattlin’ limb
And the limb on the tree, and the tree in the bog,
And the bog down in the valley-oh

stick right arm out

And on that limb there was a branch................................

bend right arm at elbow

And on that branch there was a twig.................................

like branch, but point you index finger straight up as well

And on that twig there was a nest.....................................

cup hands in front off chest

And in that nest there was an egg......................................

close the nest, and lift your hands vertically

And on that egg there was a bird......................................

flap arms like a bird

And on that bird there was a feather................................

wave one hand

And on that feather there was a fly...................................

hold thumb and index finger apart slightly

And on that fly there was a flea........................................

like fly, but smaller

And on that flea there was a germ....................................

point to a dot
