Skip a Rope Songtext
von Henson Cargill

Skip a rope, skip a rope
Oh, listen to the children while they play
Now ain′t it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad
Last night you should've heard the fight they had
It gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with a terrible scream

Skip a rope, skip a rope
Oh, listen to the children while they play
Now ain′t it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope


Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool
Now what was that they said about the golden rule
Never mind the rule, just play to win
And hate your neighbor for the shade of his skin

Skip a rope, skip a rope
Oh, listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

"Stab ′em in the back," that′s the name of the game
Mommy and daddy are who to blame

Skip a rope, skip a rope
Just listen to your children while they play
It's really not very funny what the children say
Skip a rope, skip a rope
Skip a rope, skip a rope
