On Grandpa's farm live cows, pigs and hens that cluck
on Grandpa's farm lives Daisy Duck.
Daisy lives down by the pond of the water's she's very fond
She leads her brood out in the water
greeting Mrs. Goose with her sun and daughter.
On Grandpa's farm lives Pansey Pig and she is very very big.
Little piglets, one, two, three, all look very cute to me.
Out in the meadow grazes Clara the cow
She know's it's time for milking now.
On Grandpa's farm six lambs at play
Skipping in the sunshine all through the day
Little Ginny burro won't be led
not until she has been fed.
Jack her mate hee-haw's with glee
When he get's a carrot from Ben and me.
Myrtle the cat chases a mouse
keeping them out of Grandma's house.
Royal Red the rooster a dandy cock
keeps an eye on the whole hen flock.
Migglety the speckled hen clucks to her
chickies in the pen
On Grandpa's farm live's Gertie the goat
She prefers to eat brush, not my coat.
Two little goat kids, caper in the sun
butting their heads just for fun.
On Grandpa's farm lives Clancy the horse
his favorite treat is sugar of course.
A mother rabbit with six little bunnies
twitching pink noses are really funny
Lad the watch dog is a loyal old friend
he likes to tag along with me and Ben.
All the turkeys love to eat corn
Especially the big one we named Lorne
Mazie the cow has a new calf
wobby legs make Ben and I laugh
Watching over the, Ewes and lambs
Is a big old sheep Curly the ram
Myrtle's four kittens asleep in the loft
their fur feels silky and soft.
Pierre the Peacock fans his tail
he is a very haughty male
Betsy the mare has a new foal
his shiney coat is black as coal
On Grandpa's farm we have great fun
Ben and I play all day in the sun.
