Lyrics

[Verse 1] 3, 6, 9 The goose drank wine The monkey chewed tobacco On the streetcar line The line broke The monkey got choked They all went to heaven In a little row-boat [Chorus 1] Clap-Pat - Peace in America! Clap pat - Peace to the world! Clap-Pat Clap; Slap [Verses 2] My mother told me If I was good 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 Hands! [Chorus 2] Clap-clap - Clap your hands and prepare to pat Pat - Take your right arm Clap - Take your partner's right palm with your right palm Pat Clap Pat Clap; Slap [Bridge] Takе the pats of your palms And slap with your thighs And watch the fun materializе As you sing this little song [Verses 2 repeat] My mother told me If I was good 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 Hey!
