They skip and jump through the hoop
Starts a beat and the loop
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
The five town diamond skippers, the pleasure of rope rippers
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, watch your feet
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
They might break and they might fall
Hey, ebo, ebonettes
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
All the teams change your partners now
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
To win the double dutch
They just start again, start again
They skip and jump through the hoop
Starts a beat and the loop
But you know the gals in New York City don't
The mighty motion skippers
But the gals in New York City don't
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
They might break and they might fall
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
The mighty motion skippers
All over the world high school girls
Hey, ebo, ebonettes
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
The golden angels, the ford green angels
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes
Somersault through the hoop, leap to beat
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Hey, swing those ropes 'round and 'round
The pleasure of rope rippers
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes
Stay jumping
Those dark and lovely skippers, those five town diamond skippers
The clicks that keep on coming
Hey girls, how many skips can you do?
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
They just start again, start again
Hey, ebo, ebonettes
Skip they do's the double dutch, that's them dancing
Hey, ebo, ebo ebonettes
The dark and lovely skippers
Hey, ebo, ebo, ebonettes
Take to the ropes and turn them slow
