Hump-ty Dump.
Hump Hump De Dump-ty Dump-ty
Hump-ty Dump.
Hump Hump De Dump-ty Dump-ty
Verse 1:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men said
OOH! AIN’T THAT FUNKY NOW!
(chorus)
Verse 2:
Little Jack Horner sat in a corner
Eating his pudding pie
He stuck in his thumb,
and pulled out a plumb and said:
OOH! AIN’T THAT FUNKY NOW!
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet
Eating her curds and whey
Along came a spider, who sat down beside her
and said:
OOH! AIN’T THAT FUNKY NOW!
(chorus)
You can keep this up for as many nursery rhymes as you can think of. The whole song is sung while keeping a beat (slap knees – clap hands). The chorus is sung to the beat by everyone, and the verses are typically spoken at a fast pace by the song leader or a group of leaders. The kids love shout out the “ooh! ain’t that funk now!” part — which I usually pause the beat for.
