Jadda/Three Little Fishies
Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Daria Marmaluk-Hajioannou

 

Jadda, jadda, jadda jadda jing, jing jing
Jadda, jadda, jadda jadda jing, jing jing
It’s a funny bit of melody
That’s so soothing and appealing to me
It goes “Jadda, jadda, jadda jadda jing, jing jing”

Down in a meadow in an itty bitty pool
Swam three little fishies and the mamma fishie, too
Swim said the momma fishie, swim if you can
And they swam and they swam all over the dam

Chorus:
Boop, boop diddum daddum waddum chew!
And they swam and they swam all over the dam

Stop! Said the mommy or you will get lost
But the three little fishies didn’t want to get bossed
So they swam and they swam as you can see
And they swam and they swam right into the sea

Help! Cried the little fishies look at the whales
Quick as they could, they turned on their tales
Back to the pool in the meadow they swam
And they swam and they swam all over the dam
