There’s a Hole in my Bucket

There’s a hole in my bucket

Dear Liza, dear Liza

There’s a hole in my bucket

Dear Liza, a hole

 

Well fix it, dear Henry

Dear Henry, dear Henry

Well fix it, dear Henry, well fix it

 

With what shall I fix it

Dear Liza, dear Liza

With what shall I fix it

Dear Liza, with what

 

With straw, dear Henry,

Dear Henry, dear Henry

With straw, dear Henry, with straw

 

The straw is too long . . .

Well cut it . . .

With what shall I cut it . . .

With an axe . . .

The axe is too dull . . .

Then sharpen it . . .

With what shall I sharpen it . . .

With a stone . . .

The stone is too dry . . .

Then wet it . . .

With what shall I wet it . . .

With water . . .

In what shall I fetch it . . .

With a bucket . . .

There’s a hole in my bucket . . .
