Lyrics
(African American game song)
That’s a mighty pretty motion, Dee di dee,
That’s a mighty pretty motion, Dee di dee,
That’s a mighty pretty motion, Dee di dee,
Rise sugar rise.
That’s a mighty poor motion, Dee di dee,
That’s a mighty poor motion, Dee di dee,
That’s a mighty poor motion, Dee di dee,
Rise sugar rise.
