Bobby Bare - Skip A Rope lyrics

Skip a rope, skip a rope Oh, listen to the children while they play Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say Skip a rope, skip a rope. Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad Last night you should've heard the big fight they had It gave little sister another bad dream She woke us all up with a terrible scream. Skip a rope, skip a rope Oh, listen to the children while they play Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say Skip a rope, skip a rope. Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool Now what was that they said about the golden rule Never mind the rule just play to win And hate your neighbor for the shade of his skin. Skip a rope, skip a rope Oh, listen to the children while they play Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say Skip a rope, skip a rope. Stab 'em in the back that's the name of the game And mommy and daddy are who's to blame Skip a rope, skip a rope, listen to the children while they play Now it's not very funny what the children say Skip a rope, skip a rope, skip a rope...
