John Brown's baby had a cold upon his chest,
John Brown's baby had a cold upon his chest,
John Brown's baby had a cold upon his chest,
And they rubbed it with camphorated oil.

3) Omit "baby" and "cold" and do actions
4) Omit "baby", "cold" and "chest" ...
5) Omit "baby", "cold", "chest" and "rubbed" ...
6) Omit "baby", "cold", "chest", "rubbed" and "camphorated oil" ...
