10 Little Beehive Girls


10 Little Beehive Girls
(Tune: Ten Little Indians) 

CHORUS 
[A] 1 little, 2 little, 3 little beehives, 
[E7] 4 little, 5 little, 6 little beehives, 
[A] 7 little, 8 little, 9 little beehives, 
[E7] 10 little beehive [A] girls. 

[A] One little beehive went in wading,
[E7] When the evening sun was fading
[A] She got cold and caught pneumonia
[E7] Nine little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive went off hiking,
[E7] Found the trail, not to her liking
[A] She got lost and no one found her
[E7] Eight little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive didn't wear shoes,
[E7] Cut her foot and got the blues
[A] She got tetanus and went to heaven
[E7] Seven little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive lost her mess kit,
[E7] She got hungry and had a big fit
[A] She starved to death, we'll dearly miss her
[E7] Six little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive lost her flashlight
[E7] Wandered off into the dark night
[A] She fell off a cliff, we couldn't find her
[E7] Five little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS 

[A] One little beehive built a fire,
[E7] Close to a tree, the smoke rose higher
[A] All we found were ashes everywhere
[E7] Four little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive had a hatchet
[E7] It was so sharp that none could match it
[A] She chopped her hand,
they couldn't patch it
[E7] Three little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive went for water,
[E7] Did not boil it like we taught her
[A] She got the runs, alas, we lost her
[E7] Two little beehive [A] girls.
CHORUS

[A] One little beehive missed her home and cried
[E7] We decided to find her a ride  
[A] Now she's gone there's no more crying
[E7] One little beehive [A] girl.  
CHORUS
 
[A] One little beehive all alone,
[E7] Lived through camp and then went home
[A] No ones left, the camp's deserted
[E7] No little beehive [A] girls!
