BLACK-AMERICAN JUMP-ROPE RHYME
MISS LUCY HAD A BABY, HER BABY
HAD A BELT, MISS LUCY WENT TO
HEAVEN, HER BABY WENT TO HELLO
OPERATOR, GIVE ME NUMBER NINE
AND IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ME, I'LL
KICK YOU RIGHT BEHIND THE FRIGERATOR
THERE WAS A PIECE OF GLASS, MISS
LUCY SLIPPED RIGHT ON IT AND CUT HER
BIG FAT ASK ME NO MORE QUESTIONS, I'LL
TELL YOU NO MORE LIES, MISS LUCY TOLD
ME ALL OF THIS THE DAY BEFORE SHE DIED.
