This is a favorite dance and I love using it to introduce syncopation! There are (at least) 2 versions although I think Version 2 is probably more historically accurate. The song and dance is a play party. Here is more information about this song and more here from the University of Arkansas with a field recording from 1953. The speech at the beginning of Version 1 is something I created with my students.
