Lyrics:
3, 6, 9
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’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 mother 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


Clap Clap!
Clap your hands and prepare to Pat
Take your right arm
Pat your partner’s palm with your right palm

(Clap)
Take your hand back and clap
Pat)
Take your right arm
Pat your partner's right palm
With your right palm
(Clap)
Take your hands back and clap
(Pat)
Take you right arm
Cross your right arm
With your left arm
Pat your partner's left palm
With your left palm.
(Clap)
Take your hands back and clap
(Pat)
Take your right arm
Cross your left arm and
Pat your partner's right palm
With your right palm.
(Clap)
Now back, with a clap
(Slap)
Take the flats of your palms
And slap your thighs
And watch the fun
Materialize as you sing
This little song
