Lyrics
Dollar, dollar you must wander
From the one hand to the other
Is it fair, is it fair
To keep poor (name of “It”) sitting there?
Coin Passing Game
Formation: Students sit in a circle and one student (“It”) sits in the middle with eyes closed (for the first time sung only).
Students sing the song while passing a coin around the circle. If they don’t have the real coin, they pretend to pass a coin. After the first time singing, “It” can start to watch the students pass. Sing the song a second time, and then “It” can guess who has the coin. Whoever is caught with the coin becomes the new “It.”
