Five Rosy Apples

Five rosy apples

By the cottage door;

One tumbled off the twig,

And then there were four.

Four rosy apples

Hanging on the tree;

The farmer's wife took one,

And then there were three.

Three rosy apples

What shall I do?

I think I will have one,

And then there'll be two.

Two rosy apples

Hanging in the sun;

You have the big one

And  that will leave one.

One rosy apple

Soon it is gone;

The wind blew it off the branch,

And now there are none.
