The Belle Stars
Clapping Song (Extended 12" Mix)
3, 6, 9
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, slap
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 thigh, 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

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
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
