The Clapping Song Songtext
von Leslie Clio

Take the flats of your palms and slap your thighs and watch the fun materialize as you sing this little song

Three, six, nine, the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the streetcar line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in 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 your hand, cross it with your left arm, pat your partner's left palm
Clap-Pat: Clap your hand, pat your partner′s right palm with your right palm again
Clap-Slap: Clap your hands, slap your thighs, and sing a little song - go

My mother told me
If I was good-ee
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

Three, six, nine, the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the streetcar line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little row-boat

Clap: Clap you hands and prepare to pat
Pat: Take your right arm pat your partner's right palm with your right palm
Clap: Take your hands back and clap
Pat: Take you right arm cross your right arm with your left arm pat your partner′s left palm with your left palm
Clap: Take your hands back and clap
Pat: Take your right arm cross your left arm and pat your partner′s right palm with your right palm
Clap: Now back, with a clap
Pat: Take the flats of your palms and slap your thighs and watch the fun materialize as you sing this little song:

My mother told me
If I was good-ee
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

Three, six, nine, the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the streetcar line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little row-boat

Clap-Pat
Clap-Pat
Clap-Pat
Clap-Slap

Clap-Pat
Clap-Pat
