Three, six, nine
the goose drank wine..
The monkey chewed 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 hands
pat your partner's right palm
with your right palm again..

Clap.. Pat..
Clap your hands
slap your thighs
and sing a little song:

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...

Three, six, nine
the goose drank wine..
The monkey chewed tobacco
on the streetcar line..
The line broke
the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven
in a little rowboat...

Sung: CLAP.. CLAP...
Spoken: Clap you hands and prepare to pat
Sung: PAT:
Spoken: Take your right arm
pat your partner's right palm
with your right palm...

Sung: CLAP:
Spoken: Take your hands back and clap...
Sung: PAT:
Spoken: Take your right arm
cross your right arm
with your left arm
pat your partner's left palm
with your left palm...

Sung: CLAP:
Spoken: Take your hands back and clap
Sung: PAT:
Spoken: Take your right arm
cross your left arm
and pat your partner's right palm
with your right palm...

Sung: CLAP:
Spoken: Now back, with a clap...

Sung: SLAP:
Spoken: Take the flats of your palms..
and slap your thighs
and watch the fun materialize..
as you sing this little song:

Sung: 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.. Pat..
Clap.. Pat..
Clap.. Pat..
Clap.. Slap..!

Clap.. Pat..
Clap.. Pat..
Clap.. Pat..
Clap.. Slap..!
