John Boatman

Call John the boatman,
Call, call again,
For loud flows the river
And fast falls the rain.

John is a good man, and sleeps very sound;
His oars are at rest, and his boat is aground.
Fast flows the river so rapid and deep;
The louder you call him the sounder he'll sleep.

Learning nursery rhymes assists in the development of vocabulary and in some cases basic counting skills. It also introduces children to enjoy music. Often actions, movement or dances are associated with these nursery rhymes and children songs.
