英语儿歌274首 第147期:Oats,Peas,Beans and Barley Grow

 歌词如下：

Oats, peas, beans, and barley¹ grow,

oats, peas, beans, and barley grow,

Can you or I or anyone know

How oats, peas, beans, and barley grow?

First the farmer sows his seed,

Stands erect² and takes his ease,

He stamps his foot and claps his hands,

And turns around to view his lands.

Oats, peas, beans, and barley grow,

oats, peas, beans, and barley grow,

Can you or I or anyone know

How oats, peas, beans, and barley grow?

Next the farmer waters the seed,

Stands erect and takes his ease,

He stamps his foot and claps his hands,

And turns around to view his lands.
