The Clapping Song (clap Pat Clap Slap) - Single Version Lyrics & Chords By Shirley Ellis
The goose drank wine The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line The line broke, the monkey got choked And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat Clap pat - clap pat - clap pat - clap slap Clap pat! clap your hand... Pat it on your partner hand... right hand Clap pat! clap your hand... Cross it with your left arm Pat your partner left palm Clap pat! clap your hand... Pat your partner right palm And a right palm again Clap slap! clap your hand... Slap your thigh and sing a little song go... My Mother told me If I was goody That she would buy me A rubber dolly My Auntie told her I'd kissed a soldier Now she won't buy me A rubber dolly The goose drank wine The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line The line broke, the monkey got choked And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat 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! Take your left arm Cross your left arm with your right arm Pat your partner's right palm with your right palm Clap! Now back with a clap Clap! Take your hand to your palm and slap your thigh And watch the fun materialize My Mother told me If I was goody That she would buy me A rubber dolly My Auntie told her I'd kissed a soldier Now she won't buy me A rubber dolly
