Jennifer's Rabbit 

(Tom Paxton) 

Jennifer slept in her little bed 

With dreams of a rabbit in her little head 

Jennifer's rabbit, brown and white 

Left the house and went to town one night 

Along with a turtle and a kangaroo 

And seventeen monkeys from the city zoo 

They went for a ride on an old street car 

They tried to drive it but they didn't get far 

They all got tired and decided to go 

To see the people in the picture show 

Jennifer's rabbit, white and brown 

Looked in the windows of the shops downtown 

He found a dress for Jennifer to wear 

And a pretty blue ribbon for her long blond hair 

Then the rabbit and the turtle and the kangaroo 

Bowed to each other like polite folks do 

They went to a shop where the cookies are free 

And they all had cookies and oolong tea 

Then, "My!" said the turtle as the clock struck three 

"The hour is growing very late for me." 

"Not at all," said the rabbit. "If you give me a chance, 

I'll lead all the monkeys in a hula dance!" 

So they danced all night and the moon danced too 

Then the rabbit and the turtle and the kangaroo 

Jumped into bed and closed their eyes 

And were fast asleep before the sun could rise 

And Jennifer slept in her little bed 

With dreams of a rabbit in her little head
