De bortglömda stegen 2

En dans som tyvärr aldrig setts på maskeraden är The Clapping Song-dansen, dansen till Shirley Ellis hit The Clapping Song från 1965. Nästa maskerad kommer nog låten spelas, så skriv ut texten, studera videon och börja öva!



Shirley Ellis - The Clapping Song

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 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
Clap slap! clap your hand...
Slap your thigh and sing a little song

my mother told me
if i was goody
that she would but me
a rubber dolly
my auntie told her
i'd kissed a soldier
now she wont buy me
a rubber dolly
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 clap!
Clap your hands and prepare to pat
Take your right arm
Pat your partner 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 left palm with your left palm
Clap!
Now back with a clap
Take your hand to your palm and slap your thigh
And watch the fun materialize
As you sing this little song:

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 wont buy me a rubber dolly
buy me a rubber dolly

3 6 9 the goose drank wine
the monkey chewed tobbaco on the street carline
the line broke the monkey got choked
then they all went to heaven in a little rowboat



De yngre läsarna kanske tycker Shirley Ellis låt är "mossig" så nedan är en mer modern "coolare" version.
