I have to admit I don't always sing the songs as written - I do forget lyrics from time to time, and I like to make things up - but that doesn't mean we don't have fun. Infact we may have more fun when we let loose and sing like we don't have a care in the world.
*Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill
Went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down
and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
*Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

Row, row, row your boat
gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
