_10 to 60 players._

_Playground; gymnasium; schoolroom._

Let the feet go tramp! tramp! tramp!
Let the hands go clap! clap! clap!
Let the finger beckon thee.
Come, dear friend, and skip with me.
La, la la la, la la la, etc.

Let the Feet Go Tramp


The players form a circle with from one to five in the center,
according to the number of players. All of the players, both circle
and center, sing the verse, suiting the action to the words with
stamping of the feet for "Tramp, tramp, tramp!" and clapping of the
hands for "Clap, clap, clap!" As the last line, "Come dear friend and
skip with me," is sung, each child in the center beckons to one in the
circle, who steps in and joins hands with the little partner as they
stand facing each other. These partners in the center then dance
around in time to the chorus "La, la," and the circle players may also
join hands and dance in a circle.
