y z und o weh,
ja ja, jetzt kann ich's ABC.
A b c, die Katz lief über den See,
die Katz lief über den Sack,
bringt Dir ein Pfund Schnupftabak.
A b c d e, der Kopf tut mir weh,
f g h i k, der Doktor ist da,
l m n o, jetzt bin ich froh,
p q r s t, es ist wieder gut, juchhe!
U v w x, jetzt fehlt mir nix,
y z, jetzt geh' ich ins Bett.
A b c, die Katze lief im Schnee.
Als sie wieder rauskam,
hat sie weiße Stiefel an.
Da ging der Schnee hinweg,
da lief die Katz im Dreck.
Ene mene Tintenfaß, 
geh in die Schul und lerne was.
Ene mene Sandbüchs,
bleib daheim, du kannst nix.
