From wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Little_Indians
Ten Little Indians is a modern children's rhyme (sometimes "soldier boys" or "teddy bears" is used instead of Indians to avoid offense). The song, supra, is usually performed to the Irish folk tune "Michael Finnegan".
[edit]History
The rhyme was notable for being the inspiration for Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None.
