Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on
One shoe off, and one shoe on
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John

Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on
One shoe off, and one shoe on
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John

See if you can add the last word

Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son—
Went to bed with his stockings—
One shoe off, and one shoe—
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son—

Now let's say it all together

Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on
One shoe off, and one shoe on
Diddlе, diddle, dumpling, my son John
