about

A polka song written for children and those of you who like spontaneous dancing on the spot should it take your fancy. Three steps and a little hop...

lyrics

Oh can you wash your daddy’s shirt and hang it on the line?
Oh can you wash your daddy’s shirt and hang it up to dry?

Yes I can, yes I can I can hang it on the line,
For when I stand up on my tip toes, I’m nearly three feet high.



Oh can you scrub your daddy’s boots and scrap off all the mud?
Oh can you scrub your daddy’s boots and wash them in the tub?

Yes I can, yes I can with plenty soap and suds.
They’ll be two fishing boats for me sailing in the tub.



Oh can you kiss your Dad good night and sit upon his knee?
He’s worked so hard to pay the rent, buy jam and bread for tea.

Yes I can, yes I can, I’ll climb up on his knee.
And I’ll sit there like a little bird, singing in a tree.
