Here are the lyrics to the classic children’s song, The Ants Go Marching. Enjoy!
The ants go marching one-by-one
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching one-by-one
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching one-by-one
The little one stops to suck his thumb
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching two-by-two
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching two-by-two
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching two-by-two
The little one stops to tie his shoe
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching three-by-three
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching three-by-three
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching three-by-three
The little one stops climb a tree
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching four-by-four
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching four-by-four
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching four-by-four
The little one stops to shut the door
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching five-by-five
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching five-by-five
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching five-by-five
The little one stops to take a dive
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching six-by-six
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching six-by-six
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching six-by-six
The little one stops to pick up sticks
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching seven-by-seven
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching seven-by-seven
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching seven-by-seven
The little one stops to pray to heaven
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching eight-by-eight
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching eight-by-eight
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching eight-by-eight
The little one stops to shut the gate
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching nine-by-nine
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching nine-by-nine
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching nine-by-nine
The little one stops to check the time
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go marching ten-by-ten
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching ten-by-ten
Hur-rah, hur-rah
The ants go marching ten-by-ten
The little one stops to say “the end”
And they all go marching down
To the ground
To get out
Of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom, boom
