Pat-a-Cake Lyrics??

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with “B.”
Put it in the oven for baby and me,
For baby and me,
For baby and me.
Put it in the oven for baby and me.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Cut it with a knife.
Put it on a plate.
Please Mr. Baker, oh don’t make me wait.
Don’t make me wait.
Don’t make me wait.
Please Mr. Baker, oh don’t make me wait.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with “B.”
Put it in the oven for Billy and me,
For Billy and me,
For Billy and me.
Put it in the oven for Billy and me.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with “C.”
Put it in the oven for Cowy and me,
For Cowy and me,
For Cowy and me.
Put it in the oven for Cowy and me.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with “E.”
Put it in the oven for Elliot and me,
For Elliot and me,
For Elliot and me,
Put it in the oven for Elliot and me.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it and pat it and mark it with “B.”
Put it in the oven for Bobby and me,
For Bobby and me,
For Bobby and me,
Put it in the oven for Bobby and me.

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake baker’s man.
Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Cut it with a knife.
Put it on a plate.
Please Mr. Baker oh don’t make me wait.
Don’t make me wait.
Don’t make me wait.
Please Mr. Baker, oh don’t make me wait.

About the Song

Pat-a-Cake is a classic nursery rhyme and a great way to introduce little ones to the different sounds of the English language!

Pat-a-Cake can also boost your child’s English vocabulary! Your little one will learn cooking verbs such as roll, pat, bake and cut. Or why not try naming the ingredients you’ve seen in the video, like eggs, flour and milk! Or the cooking utensils, like the knife and the oven!

A great way to practice all this new vocabulary is to become bakers yourselves, baking a delicious cake that you and your little one can enjoy (don’t forget to mark it with the first letter of your name)!
