I got six.
That's all there Is.
6 x 1 is 6, 1 x 6

He got six.
I put mine with his and we got twelve
6 x 2 is 12, 2 x 6

I got six, you got six,
She got six.
We got eighteen all together.
If we can get'em all together.
6 x 3 is 18, 3 x 6

I got six In my right hand,
Six In my left hand,
Six on my head.
And you got six in your pocket.
Put'em all on the floor-that's twenty-four.
6 X 4 IS 24, 4 x 6

I got six red hens.
They laid five eggs each.
All the eggs hatched out,
And the yard was full of thirty little chicks.
6 x 5 is 30, 5 x 6

One fine day,
They all started in to lay.
I got thirty-six eggs and I took 'em in the house,
And I put'em in boxes,
Six eggs each. Six boxes.
Aw, 6 x 6 is 36, 6 x 6

Going to the candy store-
I'll take six of these and six of those
and six of them and six of the others.
And also six of the red, six of the white,
and six of the blue.
I'll put'em in one bag-that's forty-two.
6 x 7 is 42, 7 x 6

Oh, I'm throwin' down jacks,
Pickin' up six.
I made eight tricks
And didn't miss a lick.
6 x 8 is 48, 8 x 6

Nine hungry men had six dollars each
(Aw!) and that's fifty-four bucks,
But they were out of luck.
Cause fifty-four bucks won't buy dinner
downtown.
Not for nine.

Then there were Six hungry men
They had nine dollars each (Yeah!)
And they went downtown, and the waiter said
'Sit down!'
Oh, it makes a big difference how you spread it around.
6 x 9 is 54, 9 x 6

See that prince over there (Yeah!)
The one with the fuzzy hair.
He's got six rings on every finger.
He don't wash no dishes,
Not with sixty diamonds.
6 x 10 is 60, 10 x 6

He brought along eleven camels.
Now, ain't that nice. (Ain't that nice)
Each one loaded down with six casks of oil and spice.
Brought quite a price.
6 x 11 is 66, 11 x 6

He had twelve wives.
He better be rich.
Each one had six kids-six children each.
6 x 12 is 72, 12 x 6

But me, I got six. (I got six)
That's all there is. (That's all there is)
6 x 1 is 6 (6 x 1 is 6) 1 x 6 (l x 6)

I got six. (I got six)
That's all there is. (That's all there is)
