Children Go Where I Send Thee - Peter, Paul and Mary

Well, I’m gonna send thee one by one

One for the little bitty baby

Who was born, born, born in bethlehem

Said he was born, born, born in bethlehem

Children go where I send thee: how shall I send thee?

Hey, I’m gonna send thee two by two

Two for paul and silas

One for the itty bitty baby

Who was born, born, born in bethlehem.

Children go where I send thee: how shall I send thee?

I’m gonna send the:

Three by three, three for the hebrew children

Four by four, four for the four that stood at the door

Five by five, five for the five that stayed alive

Six by six, six for the six that never got fixed

Seven by seven, seven for the seven who never got to heavn

Eight by eight, eight for the eight that stood at the gate

Nine by nine, nine for the nine that dressed so fine

Ten by ten, ten for the ten commandments

He was born, born, born in bethlehem.
