Jump Rope Rhymes

Texaco

(swing rope back and forth)

Texaco, Texaco,

(swing jump rope over normal)

Over the hill to Mexico,

Where they do the splits

Split, splits

And do high kicks, kicks, kicks

And turn around, round, round

And touch the ground, ground, ground

And get outta town, town, town

And get back in, in, in

And do a little spin, spin, spin

And do it all over again

(repeat rhyme)
