Lyrics Skip A Rope - Jimmy Dean

Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Listen to the children while they play

Ain't it kinda funny what kids will say
Skip a rope

Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad

Last night you shoulda heard the fight they had
Gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with a terrible scream
Skip a rope

Skip a rope
Listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what kids will say
Skip a rope

Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool
Now what was that they said about a Golden Rule?

Never mind the rules, just play to win
And hate your neighbour for the shade of his skin
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what kids will say
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
Just listen to your children while they play
It's really not very funny, what the children say
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
