以下是《Ten Little Indians》的歌詞：
Ten Little Indians, sitting in a row,
Nine jumping up and shouting too,
Eight lagging behind crying "Please, oh please,
When will they be nine and I'll be free?"
Seven came with a "be quiet, dear,"
Six went to bed and so did five,
Four played on the gate till three,
And there were three little Indians left.
Two went for a walk, one went to bed,
And there was one left all by himself.
"Please come out," he said to the door,
"I want to play with my little friends once more."
So nine and eight and seven and six
Came back with him and played for a while,
But when their games had finished up
There was only one little Indian boy left.
One two three, there are two here,
One fell out and it is not clear who fell who cried who screamed who.
But all that's done and done and gone.
The next day the little boys sang out.
"There are nine boys in our family now!"
So nine little boys is what you'll see.
The next day the other four fell in and sang.
"Now there are twelve of us in our family!"
And so there are twelve Indians in the row!
The boys played until they were tired.
And then they all went to bed.
Ten Little Indians, sitting in a row!
