I had a little puppy. His name was Tiny Tim.
I put him in the bathtub, to see if he could swim.
He drank up all the water. He ate a bar of soap.
The next thing you know, he had a bubble in his throat.

Had a little sportscar 248
Took it round the coooooooooooorrr (jumper hops out of the turning rope, runs around the corner & jumps back in)
Ner & slammed it on the brakes
(jump rope turners stop turning)
Bumped into a lady, bumped into a man
Bumped into a policeman, man oh man
Policeman caught me, Put me in jail
All I had was ginger ale
and a Red, hot, chili pepper
(rope turners turn faster & faster
until jumper misses a jump)
