One Potato

In my little garden

Promise you won’t laugh

I haven’t any flowers

And I haven’t any grass

But now I’m going to dig and plant

And soon I’ll have a show

With a bit of sun and a bit of rain

There’ll be a lovely row



One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four

Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more

One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four

Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more



I’m going to grow so many things

I’ll surely never starve

Cabbages and cauliflowers

I won’t do things by halves

I’ll plant a row of runner beans

That grow so very high

With a bit of sun and a bit of rain

They’ll reach up to the sky



One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four

Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more
One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four

Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more



So if you’re ever down my way

Please drop in for tea

We’ll have lettuces and radishes

They’ll all be grown by me

Tomatoes too and cucumbers

What a lovely spread

And if you do not like that you can always have



One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four
Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more

One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes four

Five potatoes, six potatoes, seven potatoes more
