Hi-Ho The Oak Tree Grows
(Played like the “Farmer in the Dell”)
The acorn’s on the tree

Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The acorn’s on the tree
The acorn falls kerplop
The acorn falls kerplop
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The acorn falls kerplop
The squirrel plants the seed
The squirrel plants the seed
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The squirrel plants the seed
The rain comes gently down
The rain comes gently down
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The rain comes gently down
The sun begins to shine
The sun begins to shine
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The sun begins to shine
The seedling grows two leaves
The seedling grows two leaves
Hi-ho the oak tree grows

The sapling grows so tall
The sapling grows so tall
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The sapling grows so tall
The tree stands big and strong
The tree stands big and strong
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The tree stands big and strong
Its flower blooms in the spring
Its flower blooms in the spring
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
Its flower blooms in the spring
The acorn’s on the tree
The acorn’s on the tree
Hi-ho the oak tree grows
The acorn’s on the tree
