He marched them up to the top of the hill, (hold baby up in the air)<\/p>\n

And he marched them down again! (bring baby down to lap)<\/p>\n

And when they\u2019re up, they\u2019re up, (hold baby high again)<\/p>\n

And when they\u2019re down, they\u2019re down, (bring baby back down to lap)<\/p>\n

And when they\u2019re only halfway up, (hold baby halfway up from lap)<\/p>\n
