Skip a Rope

Lyrics

Skip a rope, skip a rope Awwwww listen to the children While they play Now, ain't it kinda' funny What the children say Skip a rope Daddy hates momma and momma hates dad Last night, you should've heard the fight they had It gave little sister another bad dream She woke us all up with a terrible scream Skip a rope, skip a rope Awwwww listen to the children While they play Now, ain't it kinda' funny What the children say Skip a rope Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool Now, what was that they said about a Golden Rule? Well, never mind the rules, just play to win And hate your neighbor for the shade of their skin Skip a rope, skip a rope Awww listen to the children While they play Now, ain't it kinda' funny What the children say Skip a rope Stab 'em in the back That's the name of the game And momma and daddy Are who's to blame Skip a rope, skip a rope Just listen to the children While they play It's really not very funny What the children say Skip a rope, skip a rope Skip a rope, skip a rope
