The window, the window, the second story window,
With a heave ho and a mighty blow, he threw it out the window.
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown, she threw him out the window!
The window, the window, the second story window
With a heave ho and a mighty blow, she threw him out the window.
Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went she threw it out the window!
The window, the window, the second story window
With a heave ho and a mighty blow, she threw it out the window.
