Songs and Rhymes
THE PIRATE SONG 
When I was one,    (hold up 1 finger)
I banged my drum. (drumming movement)
The day I went to sea. (make fingers "run")
I jumped aboard a pirate ship, (pretend to jump)
And the captain said to me. (point to self)
We're going, this way, that way, (sway body left then right)

Forwards and backwards, (rock forward then back)
Over the Irish Sea. (make waves with arm)
A bottle of rum, to warm my tum, (pretend to drink a bottle then pat tum)
And that's the life for me. ( pump fist in air)

When I was two,         (hold up 2 fingers)
I buckled my shoe..... (buckle shoe)

When I was three,       (hold up 3 fingers)
I banged my knee....    (tap knee)

When I was four,          (hold up 4 fingers)
I knocked on the door....(knock ) 

When I was five,           (hold up 5 fingers)
I learned to dive.....       (pretend to dive)

IF YOU'RE A PIRATE AND YOU KNOW IT
If you're a pirate and you know it, swab the deck (swish, swish) 
If you're a pirate and you know it, swab the deck (swish, swish)
If you're a pirate and you know it, then you'll hear the sea winds blowin'.
If you're a pirate and you know it, swab the deck (swish, swish)
verses two and three
If you're a pirate and you know it, walk the plank,. (stomp, stomp)
If you're a pirate and you know it, say Aye Aye! (salute)

5 LITTLE PIRATES
5 Little Pirates heading out to shore
One Jumped overboard
And now there are 4

4 Little Pirates heading out to sea
One stole all the Captain’s gold
And now there are 3

3 Little Pirates with not a lot to do
One was made to walk the plank
And now there are 2

2 Little Pirates having lots of fun
One drank all the first mate’s juice
And now there is 1

1 Little Pirate sitting in the sun
He decides to abandon ship
And now there are none


LOOKING FOR TREASURE
(To the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star)
I’m looking for treasure, yesiree!
Want to come along with me?
We can look for coins of gold

“X” marks the spot so we’ve been told.
We’ll bring a shovel to dig, dig, dig
If we find some we’ll dance a jig!


I'M A LITTLE PIRATE
(Sung  to I’m a Little Teapot)
I’m a little pirate,
Big & strong (show muscles)
Sailing on the ocean
All day long (rock back & forth)
When I hear the waves' crash
To and fro (make “waves” with arms)
I sing along with my
“Yo Ho Ho!!” (pump fist in air)

I’m a little pirate,
Brave & bold (put hands on hips)
Diggin’ for treasure, (pretend to dig with shovel)
Searching for gold (“look” with hand over eyes)
I look up high (“look” high)
And look down low (“look” low)
Still singing along with my
“Yo Ho Ho!!” (pump fist in air)

I’m a little pirate
With one big yawn (give a big yawn)
Now it’s time for bed
‘Cause I’m up at dawn (hands on head, ready to sleep)
Look up at the stars (look up)
Then head below (climb down ladder-sleepily)
And I go to sleep singing
“Yo Ho Ho!!” (pump fist in air-sleepily!


WHAT SHALL  WE DO WITH A PIRATE SAILOR
What shall we do with a pirate sailor,
What shall we do with a pirate sailor,
What shall we do with a pirate sailor
Early in the morning?

Hoo-ray and up she rises,
Hoo-ray and up she rises,
Hoo-ray and up she rises,
Early in the morning?


TEN LITTLE PIRATES
Ten little pirates stood in a row (hold up all ten fingers)
They bowed to their captain so (lower and raise fingers)
They marched to the left march ( hands to left OR opposite since kids will mirror you)
They marched to the right (see above)
They shouted yoo hoo! (cup hands over mouth)
And gave their captain a fright (act scared, cover mouth with hands)


A SAILOR WENT TO SEA
A sailor went to sea, sea, sea,
to see what he could see, see, see,
and all that he could see, see, see,
was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea.

A sailor went to knee, knee, knee,
to see what he could knee, knee, knee,
but all that he could knee, knee, knee,
was the bottom of the deep blue knee, knee, knee.

A sailor went to toe, toe, toe,
to see what he could toe, toe, toe,
but all that he could toe, toe, toe,
was the bottom of the deep blue toe, toe, toe.

A sailor went to sea, knee, toe,
to see what he could see, knee, toe,
but all that he could see, knee, toe,
was the bottom of the deep blue sea, knee, toe.


A SAILOR WENT TO SEA as a clapping game!
A sailor went to sea, sea, sea,
To see what he could see, see, see,
But all that he could see, see, see,
Was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea.
Action:
A - clap own hands
SAI - clap right hand with partner
LOR - clap own hands
WENT - clap left hand with partner
TO - clap own hands
SEA, SEA, SEA - clap partner's hands three times
Repeat this sequence in rhythm until end of song.
