C G7
Skip a Rope, Skip a Rope
C Am
Oh listen to the children while they play,
C Am
Now ain’t it kind of funny what the children say
C
Skip a Rope.
C Am
Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad,
C Am
Last night you should of heard the fight they had,
C Am
Gave little sister another bad dream,
C Am
She woke us all up with a terrible scream.
C Am
Cheat on your taxes don’t be a fool,
C Am
Now what was that they say about a golden rule,
C Am
Never mind the rule just play to win,
C Am
And hate your neighbour for the shade of his skin,
C Am
Stab ‘em in the back that’s the name of the game,
C Am
And mommy and Daddy are who’s to blame
C G7
Skip a Rope, Skip a Rope
C Am
Just listen to the children while they play,
C Am
You know it’s not very funny what the children say
C G7
Skip a Rope, Skip a Rope.
C Am
Just listen to the children while they play,
C Am
You know it’s not very funny what the children say.
Skip a Rope, Skip a Rope
