Batty Bat
In old Transylvania when I was a lad
Our castle was poor but we never were sad
We learned to be happy
We'd dance round the hall
And learning to count was the key to it all
By counting each count, I knew just where to start
And one special step has stayed close to my heart
One, two, three, spread out the cape
One, two, three, twirl round the floor
One, two, three, left foot you swing
One, two, three, then start to sing
One, two, three, loud as you please
One, two, three, counting with ease
One, two, three, doing the batty bat
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Won't you dance with me doing the batty bat
So now in my own castle, I can enjoy
This wonderful dance that I learned as a boy
I see just how wise was my whole family
They taught me to count and so now look at me
I'm counting and dancing and I swear that it's true
If you do the same, you will be happy too
Go! We try again
One, two, three, spread out the cape
One, two, three, twirl round the floor
One, two, three, left foot you swing
One, two, three, then start to sing
One, two, three, loud as you please
One, two, three, counting with ease
One, two, three, doing the batty bat
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Dance with me doing the batty bat
Our castle was poor but we never were sad
We learned to be happy
We'd dance round the hall
And learning to count was the key to it all
By counting each count, I knew just where to start
And one special step has stayed close to my heart
One, two, three, spread out the cape
One, two, three, twirl round the floor
One, two, three, left foot you swing
One, two, three, then start to sing
One, two, three, loud as you please
One, two, three, counting with ease
One, two, three, doing the batty bat
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Won't you dance with me doing the batty bat
So now in my own castle, I can enjoy
This wonderful dance that I learned as a boy
I see just how wise was my whole family

I'm counting and dancing and I swear that it's true

Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One, two, three, count
Dance with me doing the batty bat
