Shirley (don't know last name) recorded this fun song in the 60's. I'd
like to learn how to do it. I know all the words. Is there a video or
a print out that will teach me how to do this fun game?

Shirley Ellis made "The Clapping Song" famous in 1965. The song, which
was based on a children's rhyme, has also been recorded by many other
artists, including the Belle Stars, Tom Waits, Pia Zadora, and Aaron
Carter.

Here you'll find the lyrics, with basic instructions for the hand-claps:

WOW! Can't believe I got the right answer and so fast,too. Thanx alot.
You've made a silly,64 yr old woman real happy. Love everything about
the song and miss that DirecTV isn't playin' it any more, at least for
a while, I hope.

Thank you very much for the five stars and the tip! I love this song,
too. Shirley Ellis had another '60s hit that I can't get out of my
head. Remember "The Name Game?" Shirley Shirley bo birley, banana
fanna, fo firley...

They don't make 'em like they used to!
