This is the way we bounce the ball, bounce the ball, bounce the ball,
This is the way we bounce the ball,
when we play basketball.

Kick the ball . . . When we play soccer.
Chop a board . . .  When we do karate.
Throw the ball . . . When we play football.
Jump so high . . . When we do ballet
Swing the bat . . . When we play baseball.
