Double Dutch Lyrics

[Spoken]
I tried to jump in, and I realized I was good at it

[Verse 1]
Let me set a scene, let me play
No-one going out of time
They're affected by the words that you sing
See her jump over the line

[Pre Chorus]
She jumps the ropes
Skipping concrete flowers
It's all they do
She jumps the ropes
Jumping rope for hours
The whole day through

[Spoken]
Going double dutch, it's just
I'm always a curious little girl, always want to try new things
I tried to jump in and I realized I was good at it

[Chorus]
With my friends
Jumping on the pavement
With my friends
Jumping to the end

[Verse 2]
See them on the corner every day
At sundown by the streetlights
Sipping sugar out of straws, making braids Making sure their shoes are tight

[Pre Chorus]
She jumps the ropes
Skipping concrete flowers
It's all they do
She jumps the ropes
Jumping rope for hours
The whole day through

[Spoken]
My name is Katherine Wilchuck and I'm nineteen years old
I'm part of this fan club and I've been jumping ever since I was ten years old
I learned how to jump by the street game of double dutch

She's a concrete flower
You should get away

[Chorus]
With my friends
Jumping on the pavement
With my friends
Jumping to the end
With my friends
Jumping on the pavement
With my friends
Jumping to the end
With my friends
Jumping on the pavement
With my friends
Jumping to the end
