ACTION JUMP ROPE RHYME
NOT LAST NIGHT BUT THE NIGHT BEFORE,
TWENTY FOUR ROBBERS CAME AKNOCKIN' AT MY DOOR,
AS I WENT OUT,
THEY CAME IN.
THIS IS WHAT I HEARD THEM SAY,
SPANISH DANCERS TOUCH THE GROUND,
SPANISH DANCERS TURN AROUND,
SPANISH DANCERS CLAP YOUR HANDS,
SPANISH DANCERS DO THE TWIST,
SPANISH DANCERS GO LIKE THIS.
Submitter comment:
THIS JUMP ROPE RHYME IS DONE WITH A ROPE HELD BY TWO PEOPLE (ONE ON
EACH END) AND AT LEAST ONE JUMPER. AS THE JUMPER SAYS "AS I WENT
OUT" SHE JUMPS OUT OF THE SPINNING ROPE, WAITS A FEW SECONDS, THEN
JUMPS BACK IN SAYING, "THEY CAME IN". AS SHE SINGS THE VARIOUS
PARTS OF THE RHYME THAT INVOLVE ACTION ("TOUCH THE GROUND" FOR
EXAMPLE) SHE DOES WHAT THE RHYME DESCRIBES IN THAT LINE. IN THE
FINAL LINE, "GO LIKE THIS", SHE MAKES UP HER OWN ACTION. AFTER SHE
COMPLETES THE RHYME, SHE JUMPS OUT AND LETS SOMEONE ELSE TAKE THEIR
TURN. AS THEY COME TO THE FINAL LINE ("GO LIKE THIS"), THEY FIRST
DO THE SAME ACTION DONE BY THE FIRST JUMPER, THEN THEY ADD ONE OF
THEIR OWN. THE JUMPING CONTINUES THIS WAY WITH EACH JUMPER ADDING
THEIR OWN ACTION AT THE END OF THE RHYME. IF A JUMPER IS NOT
SUCCESSFUL IN REPEATING ALL OF THE ACTIONS THEN SHE LOSES THE REST
OF HER TURNS. THE WINNER IS THE JUMPER WHO IS LEFT AFTER EVERYONE
ELSE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.

THIS WAS THE JUMP-ROPE RHYME IN THE LATE 1920'S AND 1930'S.
BUT THE ORIGINAL DATE OF THIS RHYME IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE USERS
AS MUCH OLDER THAN 1920.
THIS IS STILL RECITED IN 1980.
