The Animals Went In Two By Two - Counting Song

The Animals Went In Two By Two counting song brings back many special memories of when my own kids were small.

We had a beautiful jigsaw puzzle of all the animals marching into Noah’s Ark. They never seemed to get tired of tipping out the jumble of wooden pieces and singing this song as they slowly pieced the jigsaw together.

The animals went in two by two, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in two by two, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in two by two,
The elephant and the kangaroo
And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.

The animals went in three by three, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in three by three, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in three by three,
The wasp, the ant and the bumble bee
And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.

The animals went in four by four, hurrah! hurrah!
The animals went in four by four, hurrah! hurrah!

The great hippopotamus stuck in the door
And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.

The animals went in five by five, hurrah! hurrah!

And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.

They turned out the monkey because of his tricks
And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.

The animals went in seven by seven, hurrah! hurrah!

The animals went in seven by seven,
The little pig thought he was going to heaven
And they all went into the ark,
For to get out of the rain.
