I found these in a book called Jump Rope Jingles by Emma Vietor Worstell
Song 1
I am a little Dutch girl
Dressed in blue;
And here are the things I like to do:
Salute to the captain,
Bow to the queen,
And turn my back to the submarine.
Song 2
Cinderella dressed in yellow
Went upstairs to meet her fellow.
Made a mistake kissed a snake!
How many doctors did it take?
(Count until you miss)
Song 3
Down in the valley where the green grass grows
There sat (Nancy) is pretty as a rose.
She sang, she sang, she sang so sweet.
Along came (Bunny) and kissed her on the cheek.
How many kisses did he give her in a week?
(Count until you miss)
Song 4
I like coffee, I like tea.
How many boys are crazy for me?
(Count until you miss)
Song 5
Mother, Mother, I feel sick.
Call the doctor quick, quick quick.
Doctor, Doctor will I die?
Yes, my dear but do not cry.
How many carriages will there be?
(Count until you miss)
Song 6
Margie drank some marmalade,
Margie drank some pop.
Margie drank some other things
That made her stomach flop;
Whoops went the marmalade,
Whoops from the pop,
Whoops went the other things
That made her stomach flop.
Song 7
Did you ever go a-fishing on a sunny day
Sitting on a log-the log rolled away?
Put your hands in your pockets,
Put your pockets in your pants,
Did you ever see a fish do the hootchy-kootchy dance?
These are my favorite ones from the book.
