SONG 1
Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
SONG 2
Rock-a-bye, baby,
On the treetop.
When the wind blows,
The cradle will rock.
SONG 3
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
