This old man, he played oneHe played knick-knack on my thumb
Knick-knack paddy whack
Give the dog the bone
This old man came rolling home.
This old man, he played two
He played knick-knack on my shoe
Knick-knack paddy whack

This old man, he played three
He played knick-knack on my knee
Knick-knack paddy whack
Give the dog the bone
