Five little hermit crabs walking on the shore, The tide came in and then there were four. Four little hermit crabs living by the sea, The tide came in and then there were three. Three little hermit crabs wondering what to do, The tide came in and then there were two. Two little hermit crabs soaking up the sun, The tide came in and then there was one. One little hermit crab sitting all alone, The tide came in and carried him home.
