Pop Go The Wiggles!
This old man, he played one

He played nick nack on my drum

With a nick-nack-paddy-wack

Give a dog a bone

This old man came rolling home

This old man, he played two

He played nick nack on my shoe

With a nick-nack-paddy-wack

Give a dog a bone

This old man came rolling home

This old man, he played three

He played nick nack on my knee

With a nick-nack-paddy-wack

Give a dog a bone

This old man came rolling home

This old man, he played four

He played nick nack on my door

With a nick-nack-paddy-wack

Give a dog a bone

This old man came rolling home

This old man, he played five

He played nick nack on my hive

With a nick-nack-paddy-wack

Give a dog a bone

This old man came rolling home
