Four little tigers
Sitting in a tree;
One became a lady's coat -
And now there are three.
Three little tigers
'Neath a sky of blue;
One became a rich man's rug -
Now there's only two.
Two little tigers
Sitting in the sun;
One a hunter's trophy made -
Now there's only one.
One little tiger
Waiting to be had;
Oops! He got the hunter first -
Aren't you kind of glad?
