The Clapping Song |
3, 6, 9, the goose drank wine |
The monkey chewed tobacco on streetcar line |
The line broke, the monkey got choked |
And they all went to heaven on a little row boat |
Clap pat, clap pat, clap pat, clap slap |
Clap pat, clap your hand |
Pat it on your partner’s hand, right hand |
Clap pat, clap you hand |
Cross it with your left arm |
Pat your partner left palm |
Clap slap, clap your hand |
Slap your thigh and sing a little song |
My momma told me if I was lucky |
That she would treat me if I was goody |
My aunty told her, I shoulda told her |
No I’m not kidding, that’s what she told her |
3, 6, 9, the goose drank wine |
The monkey chewed tobacco on streetcar line |
The line broke, the monkey got choked |
And they all went to heaven on a little row boat |
Clap pat, clap your hands and prepare to pat |
Clap, take your right arm |
Pat your partner 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’s left palm with your left palm |
Clap, now back with a clap |
Take your hand with your palm and slap your thigh |
And watch the fun materialize as you sing this little song |
My momma told me if I was lucky |
That she would treat me if I was goody |
My aunty told her, I shoulda told her |
No I’m not kidding, that’s what she told her |
3, 6, 9, the goose drank wine |
The monkey chewed tobacco on the streetcar line |
The line broke, the monkey choked |
And they all went to heaven in a little row boat |
My momma told me if I was lucky |
That she would treat me if I was goody |
My aunty told her, I shoulda told her |
No I’m not kidding, that’s what she told her (that's what she told her) |
My momma told me if I was lucky |
That she would treat me if I was goody (I don’t believe it) |
My aunty told her, I shoulda told her (yeah right) |
No I’m not kidding, that’s what she told her (can you please her?) |
3, 6, 9, the goose drank wine |
The monkey chewed tobacco on the streetcar line |
The line broke, the monkey choked |
And they all went to heaven in a little row boat |
