I am looking for the title and singer of the song from the 1960's which goes something along the following lines:
My momma told me
If I was goody
Said she would buy me a rubber dolly
My Aunty told her
I kissed a soldier
Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly
Thanks

Originally released in 1965 by 'Shirley ellis',
Then covered in 1982 by 'the belle stars',
The track you are looking for is called "The Clapping Song"
I hope this helps you buddy,
Slim...

A bunch of singers have recorded it. The song as near as I can tell dates beack to the 1930's.google it aND YOU WILL SEE WOODY GUTHRIE AND BILL PARSONS SANG a mans version of the song and ella fitzgerald and shirley ellis sang there own version. It's a confusing song because not many people have heard of it but the few that have like it and want to find it. I'm still looking for more on it.

Bill Parsons was the name under which Bobby Bare recorded "All American Boy" and, on the flip side, "Rubber Dolly." A 1940 version may be heard on the website of Ralph Berrier, Jr. the author of If Trouble Don't Kill Me, an account of the life and times of the Hall twins.

My mama told me if I was goody
That she would buy me a rubber dolly
My Aunty told her I kiss a soldier
Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly
Three-six-nine
The goose drank wine
The monkey chew tobacco on the street car line
The line broke
The monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little row boat
