A Sailor Went to Sea, Sea, Sea
This is an ideal song for doing actions that go with the words. In subsequent verses, it's fun to substitute the silly words: chop, chop, chop, knee, knee, knee and Chestnut tree, as demonstrated in the recording. In case you are wondering, I don't know why we sing chop, chop, chop since it doesn't rhyme - but perhaps it's better than using the only other rhyming possibility wee, wee, wee (just don't go there!)
- A sailor went to sea, sea, sea
- To see what he could see, see, see
- And all that he could see, see, see
- Was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea
