Engine, Engine Number Nine


This is a counting rhyme we used as kids to determine
sides for various games. Everyone puts a foot in and someone counts
it off, something like this:
Engine, engine number nine
Rolling Down Chicago Line
If the train should jump the track
do you want your money back?

The person whose foot you are pointing to when you say "back"
answers "yes", "no" or "maybe". The counter then spells out the
answer: "y-e-s spells yes and you are not it".

Do you know any other counting rhymes?
Please enter one in as you log, it should be fun.
