I Can Work With One Hammer
(song #3 from the CD Fun and Games by Greg & Steve)
I can work with one hammer, one hammer, one hammer
I can work with one hammer (bang one fist lightly on knee)
then I work with two
I can work with two hammers, two hammers, two hammers
I can work with two hammers (bang both fists lightly on knees)
then I work with three
I can work with three hammers, three hammers, three hammers
I can work with three hammers (bang both fists and bounce one leg)
then I work with four
I can work with four hammers, four hammers, four hammers
I can work with four hammers (bang both fists and bounce both legs)
and then I work with five
I can work with five hammers, five hammers, five hammers
I can work with five hammers (bang both fists, bounce both legs and nod your head)
and then I need a rest
Sing again but go backwards this time....
