5. The nurse takes a cow, 6. The cow takes a dog,

The nurse takes a cow, The cow takes a dog,
Hi-ho, the derry-o, Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The nurse takes a cow. The cow takes a dog.

7. The dog takes a cat, 8. The cat takes a rat,

The dog takes a cat, The cat takes a rat,
Hi-ho, the derry-o, Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The dog takes a cat. The cat takes a rat.

9. The rat takes the cheese, 10. The cheese stands alone,
The rat takes the cheese, The cheese stands alone,
Hi-ho, the derry-o, Hi-ho, the derry-o,
The rat takes the cheese. The cheese stands alone.
