Lyrics The Belle Stars

The Belle Stars

The Clapping Song

Three-six-nine the goose drank wine

The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line

The line broke the monkey got choked and they all went to heaven in a little row boat

Clap pat, clap pat, clap pat, clap pat

Clap pat, clap your hand, pat it on your partner's hand, right hand

Clap pat, clap your hand, cross it with your left arm

Pat your partner's left palm

Clap pat, clap your hand, pat your partner's right palm with your right palm again

Clap slap, clap your hand

Slap your thighs and sing a little song, go

My mama told me if I was goody that she would buy me a rubber dolly

My aunty told her I kissed a soldier

Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly

Three-six-nine the goose drank wine

The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line

The line broke the monkey got choked and they all went to heaven in a little row boat

Clap, clap, clap your hands and prepare to pat

Clap, take your right arm, pat your partner's right palm with your right palm

Clap, take your hand back and clap and clap and clap and clap

Clap, take your right arm, cross your right arm with your left arm

Pat your partner's left palm with your left palm

Clap, now back with a clap

Slap, take the pats of your palms and slap your thighs and watch the fun materialize as you sing this little song

My mama told me if I was goody that she would buy me a rubber dolly

My aunty told her I kissed a soldier

Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly

Three-six-nine the goose drank wine

The monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line

The line broke the monkey got choked and they all went to heaven in a little row boat

Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap

My mama told me (Told me) if I was goody (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap) (If I was goody)

That she would buy me a rubber dolly (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap) (A rubber dolly)

My aunty told her I kissed a soldier (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap)

Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly (Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, slap)

My mama told me (Clap, clap, clap, clap)
