The Clapping Song (12-inch) - THE BELLE STARS

Three-six-nine the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car 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 hand
Slap your thighs and sing a little song, go
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
Three-six-nine the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line
The line broke the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little row boat
Clap, clap, clap your hands
And prepare to pat
Clap, take your right arm
Pat your partner's right palm
With your right palm
Clap, take your hand back
And clap and clap and clap 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
Slap, take the pats of your palms and slap your thighs
And watch the fun materialize as you sing this little song
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
Three-six-nine the goose drank wine
The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line
The line broke the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little row boat
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap
My mama told me
(Told me)
If I was goody
(Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap, if I was good)
That she would buy me a rubber dolly
(Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap, a rubber dolly)
My aunty told her I kissed a soldier
(Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap)
Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly
(Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap)
My mama told me
(Clap, clap, clap, clap, [unverified])
