George Jones Skip A Rope Lyrics

Skip A Rope Lyrics

Skip a rope

Skip a rope



Listen to the children

While they play

Now ain't it kinda funny

What the children 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 the children say



Skip a rope



Cheat on your taxes

Don't be a fool

Now what was that they said

About a golden rule?



Well, never mind the rules

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



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 the children

While they play

It's really not funny

What the children say



Skip a rope

Skip a rope



Skip a rope

Skip a rope



Skip a rope

Skip a rope
