You have to watch those double handed girls They don't turn well,they mess up your jump and the rope turns to curls. Some of them will"short rope" you-only on one side This means the rope will give you an up and down ride. Some of them just can't turn-no rythm in their hand! So there you go with rope burn abrasions you can't stand. But if you've got some up and down-the middle line will guide-the wide leg jump-feet together-round and round you go;your numbers go up and you keep the flow... The middle line is all you know with two or three more, you hit the ground and slide Come on partners glide,glide glide "Crabs in a barrel, Crabs in a barrel-They all fall down" I As I jump around on one foot and crouch down to the ground Crabs are always trying to get out There's some doubt what they are all about Crabs they carry their home ... So I jump all alone -then I let one or two come and jump into this fun. The crab mentality-I laugh -is such a foolish aim As I jump out and run about in this double Dutch game. No longer in the barrel; they can not mess up my jump! I pray they have Double Dutch in heaven when I hear the final ring. I've mastered my jump in this earthly, double Dutch thing.
