ABC [title]

A.B.C.
It's easy as 1.2.3.
My momma takes care of me.
My father don't yell at me.

Caught you with your boyfriend.
Naughty, Naughty.
Didn't do the dishes.
Lazy, Lazy.
Ate all the candy
Greedy, greedy.
Jumped out the window.
Man, you're crazy!
-Caucasian female between 17-25 years old who said she grew up
in a predominately Black neighborhood in Washington, D.C. in the late 1980s

"ABC" is another handclap rhyme. The first two lines are from the Jackson Five's 1970 hit song "ABC".

The "caught you with your boyfriend" lines [until the end of the rhyme] are found in a number of "Miss Susie Had A Steamboat" handclap rhymes.
