This Old Man - Nursery Rhyme Song for Kids

In this fun sing-along video for kids, a zany old man enjoys nick-nacking, paddy-whacking, and tending to his dog. You might even say he’s on a roll. The value of this nursery rhyme is that it helps kids be mindful of which number they have counted, make a rhyme to go with that number, and enjoy a super silly song.
This Old Man song lyrics
This old man
He played one
He played nick-nack
On my thumb
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played two
He played nick-nack
On my shoe
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played three
He played nick-nack
On my knee
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played four
He played nick-nack
On my door
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played five
He played nick-nack
On my hive
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played six
He played nick-nack
On my sticks
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played seven
He played nick-nack
Up in heaven
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played eight
He played nick-nack
On my gate
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played nine
He played nick-nack
On my spine
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
This old man
He played ten
He played nick-nack
Once again
With a nick-nack
Paddy whack
Give a dog a bone
This old man came rolling home
