3, 6, 9
The goose drank wine
The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat
My mother told me
If i was goody
That she would buy me
A rubber dolly
My auntie told her
I'd kissed a soldier
Now she wouldn't buy me
A rubber dolly
Clap clap
And put in your fathers hands x2
Get your freak on (repeated)
Getchi getchi getchi get that freak on
Missy put that down
Im a hottest round
I tell your mother
Im a good now listen to me now
Im less than 20 rounds
And if you want me better get to know
Is she with me now
The piggy piggy bow
I know you see the way i switch switch
Switchy style
I love......
The piggy jump around
People get around
My mother told me
If i was goody
That she would buy me
A rubber dolly
My auntie told her
I'd kissed a soldier
Now she wouldn't buy me
A rubber dolly

And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Get your freak on (repeated)
