This song is a four-part round. Scored in D, try it in different keys and see what is comfortable for you. The song has a range of an octave and a half, which may be challenging; try dropping the fourth line down an octave if you are struggling.
Here is a recording of me singing the whole round in D, and here is a synthesized version of the same thing.
Here are synthesized MP3 files of the song twice through, in every key. They should play OK in your browser; if you have a problem, let me know.
