(Glenn Tubb / Jack Moran)      Skip a rope, skip a rope       Awwwww Listen to the children   While they play   Now, ain't it kinda' funny   what the children say.      Skip a rope.      Daddy hates momma and momma hates dad   Last night, you should've heard the 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,       Awwwww 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 their skin.      Skip a rope, skip a rope.      Awww 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 momma and daddy   Are who's to blame.      Skip a rope, skip a rope.      Awww Listen to the 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...
