I looked in the garden and what did I find?
Green leaves a-growin' on my pumpkin vine (repeat).

Five Little Pumpkins
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate. The first one said "Oh my, it's getting late."
The second one said "There are witches in the air!"
The third one said "Oh, we don't care."
The fourth one said "It's time to go home!"
The fifth one said "Don't leave me alone!!"
"Oooooh," went the wind and OUT went the light;
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
