    In and out goes darkie blue bell.
    Another game that we play is "In and out goes darkie the bell". A group of girls catch hands and hold them up very high. Then one girl goes in and out through the others singing a verse.
    In and out goes darkie blue bell
    darkie blue bell, darkie blue bell
    In and out goes darkie blue bell
    darkie bell.
    Then she goes to a girls back and says
    Tap rap rap goes on her shoulder
    On her shoulder darkie bell
    Then that girl goes in and out through the others after the first girl. This game is continued until there is no girl in the ring.
