DUTCH GIRL
A HAND-CLAPPING GAME THAT IS PLAYED TO THIS RHYME:
I AM A PRETTY LITTLE DUTCH GIRL,
AS PRETTY AS CAN BE.
AND ALL THE BOYS AROUND MY BLOCK,
GO CRAZY OVER ME.
SOME WILL GIVE ME PEACHES.
SOME WILL GIVE ME PEARS.
SOME WILL GIVE ME FIFTY CENTS,
AND KICK ME DOWN THE STAIRS.
I DON'T WANT THEIR PEACHES,
I DON'T WANT THEIR PEARS,
ALL I'LL TAKE IS THE FIFTY CENTS,
AND KICK THEM DOWN THE STAIRS.
Submitter comment:
THE CLAPPING SEQUENCE IS:
BOTH HANDS ON LAP, CLAP TOGETHER, HIT EACH OTHER'S RIGHT
HAND (PALM TO PALM) -- CLAP TOGETHER.
HIT EACH OTHER'S LEFT HAND (PALM TO PALM), CLAP TOGETHER
HIT EACH OTHER'S TWO HANDS (PALM TO PALM), BOTH HANDS
ON LAP TOGETHER TWICE, CLAP, START AGAIN.
