Sam and Dorothy singing "Frere Jacques" in French and English
Frère Jacques is a Nursery Rhyme from Pop Go The Wiggles!. The tune is very similar to Where Is Thumbkin. It was later re-recorded as Wash Your Hands for UNICEF in 2008.
Lyrics
Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques,
Dormez vous? Dormez vous?
Sonnes les matines, sonnez les matines,
Ding, dang, dong. Ding, dang, dong.
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Brother John? Brother John?
Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing
Ding, dong, ding. Ding, dong, ding.
