Song: “Jumping and Counting” by Jim Gill, sung with permission, recording Jim Gill: Jim Gill’s Irrational Anthem
Jump Jump Jump Jump
Jumping high are we.
But we’ll stop jumping
While we count to three. 1-2-3!
Jump Jump Jump Jump
Jumping even more.
But we’ll stop jumping
While we count to four. 1-2-3-4!
Jump Jump Jump Jump
Just like pogo sticks.
But let’s stop jumping
While we count to six. 1-2-3-4-5-6!
Jump Jump Jump Jump
Jumping then we wait.
We stop our jumping
While we count to eight. 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8!
Jump Jump Jump Jump
Jumping once again.
But we’ll be finished
Once we count to ten. 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
