Answer 1

If it wasn't raining, thundering, and lightning out, and didn't tell you their hearse broke down and could they use the phone, they probably weren't worth talking to in the least. Hmph!!!

Answer 2

Bright as day, late one night, two dead boys came out to fight, back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other, a deaf cop heard the noise, went and killed the two dead boys, if you don't believe this story is true, ask the rich blind beggar, he saw it too!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen I am here before you to stand behind you to tell you something of which I know nothing...Next Thursday which is good Friday, there is a Mothers Meeting for Fathers only, admission is free, pay at the door, buy a seat, and sit on the floor...people now take my advice, pull down your britches and slide on the ice.

Answer 3

i got a different version:

Not last night but the night before,
24 robbers came knocking at my door
I asked them what they wanted, and this is what they said:
Spanish Dancer do the splits, the twist
the turnaround and touch the ground, and out the back door
Spanish Dancer please come back, back, sit on a tack, read a book and do not look,
(jump with eyes closed, everyone counting out loud: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... until you miss)


or
One fine day in the middle of the night,
Two dead boys* got up to fight, [*or men]
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other,
One was blind and the other couldn't, see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
A paralysed donkey passing by,
Kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came to arrest the two dead boys,
If you don't believe this story’s true,
Ask the blind man he saw it too!

Answer 4

There's a similar version I've heard, it goes-
Not last night, but the night before,
Three little monkeys knocked on my door.
One had a Violin,
One had a Drum,
the other had a Piccolo, stuck up his bum!

Well, that's the only one I've heard that's similar, other than the 'Dead men got up to fight' one that's already been posted on here!

:)

Answer 5

I don't know that one, but here's a similar one:

As the sun came up, late one night,
Two dead boys stepped up to fight.
Back to back they faced eachother,
Drew their swords and shot eachother.
The deaf policeman heard the noise,
he came and got the two dead boys.
If you don't believe this lie is true,
ask the blind man; he saw too!

Answer 10

We used to jump rope to it. After the part that you said we'd go:

"Spanish dancers do the splits, splits splits.
Spanish dancers do the kicks, kicks, kicks.
Spanish dancers turn around, round round.
Spanish dancers touch the ground, ground, ground.
Spanish dancers say goodbye, bye, bye,
Spanish dancers get out of town, town, town"
