Little White Duck

Danny Kaye

There's a little white duck sitting in the water 
Little white duck doing what he oughta 
He took a bite of a lily pad 
Flapped his wings and he said "I'm glad" 
That I'm a little white duck sitting in the water 
Quack, quack, quack 
There's a little green frog swimming in the water 
Little green frog doing what he oughta 
He jumped right off of the lily pad 
That the little duck bit and he said "I'm glad" 
That I'm a little green frog swimming in the water 
Gulp, gulp, gulp 
There's a little black bug floating on the water 
A little black bug doing what he oughta 
He tickled the frog on the lily pad 
That the little duck bit and he said "I'm glad" 
That I'm a little black bug floating on the water 
Quick, quick, quick 
There's a little red snake lying in the water 
A little red snake doing what he oughta 
He frightened the duck and the frog so bad 
And he ate the little bug and he said "I'm glad" 
That I'm a little red snake lying in the water 
Sss, sss, sss 
And now there's nobody left left sitting in the water 
Nobody left doing what he oughta 
Nothing left but the lily pad 
The duck and the frog ran away 
There's nobody left sitting in the water 
Boo, hoo, hoo 
Because of the snake that ate the bug 
That tickled the frog 
That went kerchug 
There's nobody left to sing about alas and alak 
Not even the little white duck 
Quack quack quack quack
