Lyrics

(Folk song)

Oh we are two sailors come from o’er the sea,
If you want to go away again, come along with me.

Refrain
Oh wishy washy, wishy washy, wishy washy wee,
If you want to go away again, come along with me.

Circle Game

  • Version 1 – Formation: Students stand in a circle around 2 students in the middle, who have right arms linked together.
    Verse – Students in the middle do a right-arm swing while students in the circle clap to the beat.
    Refrain – Students in the middle turn to face two students in the outside circle. Students put hands on their hips and do hop-right ankle on the floor, hop-left ankle on the floor to the steady beat. Two new students take their turns inside the circle as the song repeats. (source) (source)
