10 Little Indians

One little, two little, three little Indians
Four little, five little, six little Indians
Seven little, eight little, nine little Indians
Ten little Indian boys.

Ten little, nine little, eight little Indians
Seven little, six little, five little Indians
Four little, three little, two little Indians
One little Indian boy.

Information About 10 Little Indians

The original song "10 Little Indians" was composed by Septimus Winner in 1868, written specifically for a minstrel show and was much more elaborate than the song that we now know and was known then as "Ten Little Injuns".

This is a children's rhyming song that can be sung to the tune of "Michael Finnegan". It is a repetitive song which makes it easy to sing and helps with counting backwards.

There are many versions of this song that have been used in shows and books previously and the song has been quoted in many novels, like Agatha Christies, And Then There Were None.

One little two little three little Indians
Four little five little six little Indians
Seven little eight little nine little Indians
Ten little Indians boys and girls.

They jumped in the boat and the boat tipped over
They jumped in the boat and the boat tipped over
They jumped in the boat and the boat tipped over
Ten little Indians boys and girls.

They swam and they swam and they swam to the shore
They swam and they swam and they swam to the shore
They swam and they swam and they swam to the shore
Ten little Indians boys and girls.

They ran and they ran and they ran to their mothers
They ran and they ran and they ran to their mothers
They ran and they ran and they ran to their mothers
Ten little Indians boys and girls.

They slept and they slept and they slept til the morning
They slept and they slept and they slept til the morning
They slept and they slept and they slept til the morning
Ten little Indians boys and girls.
