Australian Jump Rope Songs and Chants

 Kookaburra sits in the old oak tree
 Merry merry king of the woods is he
 Laugh Kookaburra
 Laugh Kookaburra
 Gay your life must me

 Kookaburra sits in the old oak tree
 Eating all the gumdrops he can see
 Stop Kookaburra
 Stop Kookaburra
 Leave a few for me
 How many gumdrops will he leave?
 {count until someone makes a mistake}

 Kookaburra sits in the old GUM tree 
 Merry, merry king of the BUSH is he, 
 Laugh kookaburra, laugh Kookabuura, 
 gay your life must be

 Kookaburra sits in the old GUM tree Merry, merry king of the BUSH is he, 
 Laugh kookaburra, laugh Kookaburra, gay your life must be.

2008 2008 Jump Rope Contributions

This collection of jump rope songs all started from my Original Collection of Jump Rope Songs because of the size of this page and due to the many contributions I continue to receive I have recategorized many but not all songs.

Lost Rhymes Can you help me locate these Lost Rhymes. I have fragments of long forgotten Jump Rope and Hopscotch Rhymes, perhaps you remember them?

Found Rhymes Here are the results of search for the Lost Rhymes Thank you to all the friendly folk who contributed these Jump Rope and Hopscotch Rhymes.

Contribute Jump Rope Songs: Comments are available at the end of each page in this collection if you would like to contribute a jump rope song or chant.
