Ten little Indians,
|
Standing in a line.
|
One stood looking at another man's wife,
|
Then there were nine.
|
|
Nine little Indians,
|
Their hearts were full of hate.
|
One took his neighbour's goods,
|
Then there were eight.
|
|
Eight little Indians,
|
They just got down from heaven.
|
One told a lie about another's best friend,
|
Then there were seven.
|
|
Seven little Indians,
|
All trying to get their kicks.
|
One thought he'd found another way to get to heaven,
|
Then there were six.
|
|
Six little Indians,
|
Trying to stay alive.
|
One took another's life,
|
Then there were five.
|
|
Five little indians,
|
All trying to find the door.
|
One pulled his mother down,
|
Then there were four.
|
|
Four little Indians,
|
All thinking that they gotta be free.
|
One little Indian forgot to say his prayers,
|
Then there were three.
|
|
Three little Indians,
|
Deciding what they're gonna have to do.
|
One took the name of God in vain,
|
Then there were two.
|
|
Two little Indians,
|
Thinking that they oughtta have some fun.
|
One took a liking to a picture of himself,
|
Then there was one.
|
|
One little Indian,
|
Out looking for the sun.
|
At six o'clock, the moon came out,
|
Then there was none.
