The Grand Old Duke of York

Ava and I have a new favourite nursery rhyme/song. I like singing it and she likes listening to it. Sometimes I sing it over and over while she rests in my arms in the rocking chair. When I finish she says 'Again, again.' :)

Oh the grand old Duke of York,
He had ten thousand men,
He marched them up to the top of the hill
And he marched them down again.
And when they were up they were up,
And when they were down they were down,
And when they were only halfway up
they were neither up nor down!

I love this one and I don't really know why!
