I have never heard of that rhyme, but I'm guessing it has to be:
Four for a boy
(Don't you think?)

One for sorrow, Two for joy,
Three for a girl, Four for a boy,
Five for silver, Six for gold,
Seven for a secret never to be told.

I think you may have this confused with a song by the Violent Femmes called "Add it Up"

We have this rhyme in Scotland and we use it when we see Magpies.
