JudeL- In Liverpool many years ago, we found parts of your list in a ball-bouncing rigamarole;
Cherry stones, cherry stones, Cherry stones upon my plate- One-two-three-four and there'r lots more, Every one counts a wish:
Tinker,tailor,soldier, sailor, Rich man, poor man, beggerman, thief- Lady, baby, gypsy queen, Will you, won't you marry me?
The "Cherry stones" part was always straightforward ball-bouncing, but each time the "Tinker, tailor" chorus was reached, the rhythm was shifted, e.g. TINK (two bounces)ER (one bounce), and so on...you've all done it so you know what I mean!
