Clap Your Hands
Version 1
Clap your hands,
Clap your hands,
Clap them just like me.
Touch your shoulders,
Touch your shoulders,
Touch them just like me.
Pat your knees,
Pat your knees,
Pat them just like me.
Stomp your feet,
Stomp your feet,
Stomp them just like me.
Clap your hands,
Clap your hands,
Now let them quiet be.
(Mother Goose Club Version)
