Hand Clapping Game

My mother told me
If I was goody
That she would buy me
A rubber dollie
My auntie told her
I kissed her soldier
Now she won't buy me
A rubber dollie

(change of tempo)

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

KNOCK! KNOCK!
