JUMP-ROPE RHYME

I AM A PRETTY LITTLE DUTCH GIRL
AS PRETTY AS PRETTY CAN BE, BE, BE
AND ALL THE BOYS ON THE BASEBALL TEAM
GO CHASING AFTER ME, ME, ME
MY BOYFRIEND'S NAME IS TONY
HE COMES FROM THE LAND OF BALONEY
WITH A PICKLE ON HIS NOSE AND THREE BLACK TOES
THAT'S THE WAY MY STORY GOES, GOES, GOES
MY FATHER GAVE HIM PEACHES
MY MOTHER GAVE HIM PEARS, PEARS, PEARS
MY BROTHER GAVE HIM FIFTY CENTS
AND KICKED HIM DOWN THE STAIRS, STAIRS, STAIRS
