Five Little Black Crows
Five little black crows
By the old barn door,
One flew home
And then there were four.
Four little black crows
By the old oak tree
One flew home
And then there were three.
Three little black crows
With nothing to do
One flew home
And then there were two.
Two little black crows
Out in the sun
One flew
home
And then there was one.
One little black crow all alone
Through the day
He ate in the fields.
Five Little Scarecrows
