Apple on a stick just makes me sick. Makes my tummy go 246, not because it’s dirty, not because it’s clean, just because I kissed a boy behind the magazine. Hey girls, how bout a fight? Her comes (girls name)with her pants on tight. She can wiggle, she can wobble, she can do the splits. But most of all, she can kiss, kiss, KISS!
Does anyone remember the words to the jumprope game “I’m a Little Dutch Girl”. It went something like this: I’m a little Dutch girl, dressed in blue, Here are some things I like to do. Salute to the sailor, Courtesy to the queen,… I would like to know the rest of the words. Please help.
To clumsy at double-dutch: Fret not. The key is to keep the beat (time) with your right (or left) foot. Shake your hips to that beat from left to right. When you’re doing this, it helps you to swing first the left rope then the right. Also those double-dutch songs were made for a reason… to help you keep the beat. When you have to stop suddenly in the song both rope-turners jointly swing both the ropes over like a single jump rope then pull them apart to continue in double dutch. The best and least painful rope to use was clothes line. The more painful (for mistakes) and easiest to get tangled in was telephone wire. To Chinese jump rope flashbackees: Yes I remember playing that, too. IS 62, where it seemed like a game of Twisters with rubber bands. It was a cool game.
Wonderful discussion. I never have jumped rope, but could vision you all as i read your stories. I am looking for video footage of little girls doing double dutch or chinese ropes. mpeg, avi, .mov, dosent matter what format. I have searched and searched. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. KB
This is so tacky that I’m remaining anonymous. But I remember being taught this song in the early 70’s in “the hood”, where my aunt and her family lived. Of course, you remember the trash when you’re a child: Your left, Your left Your left, right left My back is aching, my belts too tight My booty’s shaking from left to right abracadabra, soda crackers, evolution, revolution eat the back of my butt, eat the back of my butt Your momma, your poppa your greasy granny, got a hole in her panties And a big behind, like frankenstein going beep-beep-beep down Sesame Street.
