Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child


Recommended Posts

it's a song that was first done, at least, in the second world war, and I believe The Belle Stars may have also released a version of it, too.

 

It does sound like that first clapping song doesn't it?

Just googled the lyrics to "the Clapping song", and yes, it's another verse of the same song!

 

"The Clapping Song"

 

[Chorus 1]

 

3, 6, 9

The goose drank wine

The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line

The line broke, the monkey got choked

And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

 

Clap Pat - Clap Pat - Clap Pat - Clap Slap

Clap Pat! Clap your hand...

Pat it on your partner hand... right hand

Clap Pat! Clap your hand...

Cross it with your left arm

Pat your partner left palm

Clap Pat! Clap your hand...

Pat your partner right palm

Clap Slap! Clap your hand...

Slap your thigh and sing a little song

 

[Chorus 2]

 

My mama told me if I was goody

That she would buy me

A rubber Dolly

My Aunty told her, I kissed a soldier

Now she won't buy me

A rubber Dolly

 

3, 6, 9

The goose drank wine

The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line

The line broke, the monkey got choked

And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

 

Clap Clap!

Clap your hands and prepare to Pat

Take your right arm

Pat your partner?r palm with your right palm

 

Clap!

Take your hand back and clap

Clap!

Take your right arm

Cross your right arm with your left arm

Pat your partner?r left palm with your left palm

Clap!

Now back with a clap

Take your hand to your palm and slap your thigh

And watch the fun materialize

As you sing this little song:

The cat crept into the crypt

cr**ped and crept out again.

 

I scream for ice cream, we all scream for I scream.

 

Rain rain go away,

come again another day,

Little Johnnie wants to play

rain rain go away.

 

Its raining its pouring

the old man is snoring

he went to bed and bumped his head

and couldn't get up in the morning.

 

Not pc, sorry:-

 

Eeny meeny miny mo,

catch a n*gger by the toe,

if he squeals,

let him go,

eeny meeny miny mo.
