It's to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.  Hope you enjoy!

(Harry, Harry, Little Star is based on SS chapters 1 - 6)

Harry, Harry, little star, on his forehead, there's a scar
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named tried to take Harry Potter's life
The curse backfired, for years he hid, Harry is The Boy Who Lived

When his mum and dad were gone, he was left without a home
Hagrid flew him to Privet Drive on Sirius' borrowed ride
Minerva put up a little struggle; "Don't leave him with these crazy 
muggles!"

Dudley's birthdays were the pits, He'd get sent to Mrs. Figg's
Dudley'd eat cake, getting fat; Harry'd look at all Figg's cats
One year, she'd broken her leg; Harry went to the zoo instead

Visiting the reptile house, snake wishes he could get out
Dudley runs up to the glass, knocks poor Harry on his ass
One blink and the glass just vanished, to his cupboard, Harry was 
banished

One day, mail came through the slot, one letter young Harry got
Mr. H. Potter, Privet Drive, you won't believe what's inside
Uncle Vernon's face turns red tearing the letter to shreds

Vernon took the family to a hut out in the sea
Midnight strikes and Hagrid knocks, to see such a man they are all 
shocked
Flames and pigtails, this guy's scary, then he says, "You're a 
wizard, Harry."

Off to Diagon Alley to buy the things Harry needs
Gringotts, wand, that blond boy's foul, Hagrid buys Harry an owl
"Happy Birthday!" says Hagrid, Harry names his owl Hedwig.

King's Cross Station to the train, Harry thinks it's all in vain
He sees platforms ten and nine, three-quarters he cannot find
Molly helps; he has success; there it is! Hogwarts Express!

Red-haired boy enters the car; Harry shows his lightning scar
"Wow!" is all that he can say, he's Ron Weasley, by the way
Reading cards from Chocolate Frogs, toad-less boy enters the car

Here's some girl in Hogwarts robes to help him look for his lost toad
Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid, fat rat yellow
Are you sure that's a real spell?  Mine all seem to work real well!

D'you know what House you will be in?  Hufflepuff or Slytherin?
Ravenclaw would not be bad, if that was the choice I had
I hope I am in Gryffindor, just like Albus Dumbledore!

Then three boys enter the car, Harry wonders who they are.
One he's seen and knows on sight, his blond hair is almost white
Draco Malfoy is his name; Crabbe and Goyle are dumb and lame.

A voice calls for the first year kids, Harry sees that it's Hagrid
The giant and the kids all take little boats across the lake
Windows sparkle underneath the stars, "Welcome, Harry, to Hogwarts!"
