Tradition Easter Songs

Little Bunny Foo Foo

Little bunny foo-foo, (hold up two fingers)

hopping through the forest (bounce your hand up and down)

Scooping up the field mice, (make a scooping motion with hand)

and bopping them on the head. (slap top of fist with palm)

(Spoken)  Then down came the Good Fairy, and she said:

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, (wag forefinger - "no-no")

I don't wanna see you (wag forefinger - "no-no")

Scooping up the field mice, (scooping motion with hand)

and bopping them on the head. (slap top of fist with palm)

(spoken)  I'll give you 3 chances,

and if you don't behave,

I'll turn you into a Goon!

Here Comes Peter Cottontail

Here comes Peter Cottontail

Hoppin' down the bunny trail,

Hippity hoppity,

Easter's on its way 

Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy

A basketful of Easter joy

Things to make your Easter

Bright and gay 

He's got jelly beans for Tommy

Colored eggs for sister Sue

There's an orchid for your mommy

And an Easter bonnet too. Oh! 

Here' comes Peter Cottontail

Hoppin' down the bunny trail

Hippity hoppity

Happy Easter Day 

Look at him hop and listen to him say,

"Try to do the things you should"

Maybe if you're extra good

He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way 

You'll wake up on Easter morning

And you'll know that he was there

When you find those choc'late bunnies That he's hiding ev’rywhere, Oh! 

Here' comes Peter Cottontail

Hoppin' down the bunny trail

Hippity hoppity

Happy Easter Day.

Easter Parade

In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it,

You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter Parade.

I'll be all in clover and when they look you over,

I'll be the proudest fellow in the Easter Parade.

On the avenue, Fifth Avenue, the photographers will snap us,

And you'll find that you're in the rotogravure.

Oh, I could write a sonnet about your Easter bonnet,

And of the girl I'm taking to the Easter Parade.

Written by Irving Berlin

Hot Cross Buns

Hot cross buns!

Hot cross buns!

One a penny, two a penny,

Hot cross buns!

If you have no daughters

Give them to your sons

One a penny, two a penny,

Hot cross buns.

Traditional Christian Easter Songs

Jesus Died For All the Children

Sung to the tune of "Jesus Loves The Little Children"

Jesus died for all the children,

All the children of the world!

Red and yellow,

Black and white,

They are precious in his sight!

Jesus died for all the children,

All the children of the world!
