Ape in the lake, watch it wave. 

Ape in the lake, eating cake.

Ape in the lake, on a plate.

Skip to my laa aaa aaa

A-e, a-e, skip to my la-e,

a-e, a-e, skip to my la-e,

a-e, a-e, skip to my la-e.

Skip to my la-e, a-e, a-e. 

 

Sheep in a jeep, on a street.

Sheep in a jeep, at full speed.

Sheep in a jeep, beep, beep, beep. 

Skip to my lee, ee, ee.  

Ee, ee,  skip to my lee, 

ee,ee,  skip to my lee, 

ee,ee, skip to my lee. 

Skip to my lee, ee, ee. 

 

Five little mice, they look nice.

Five little mice, see them smile.

Five little mice, they’re all white.

Skip to my li-e,i-e,i-e. So bright!

I-e, i-e, skip to my li-e,

i-e, i-e,  skip to my li-e,

i-e, i-e,  skip to my li-e.

Skip to my li-e, i-e, i-e.

 

Goat in the snow, with a phone. 

Goat in the snow, calling home.

Goat in the snow. Oh! Hello! 

Skip to my lo, o, o. Hello? 

Oa, ow skip to my loa,

Skip to my loa, ow, oa. 

 

Moose on the roof, what do we do?

Moose on the roof, eating soup.
Moose on the roof, with a spoon.

Skip to my loo, oo, oo.

Oo, oo, skip to my loo,

oo, oo, skip to my loo,

oo, oo, skip to my loo.

Skip to my loo, oo, oo. 

About the Song

The “Skip to My Lou” song introduces children to pre-literacy skills. Kids can discover how we change vowel sounds in different words. Plus, kids can see these words in funny situations, which helps them practice spelling and recognizing rhyming words.
