This is a skipping game. 

Two players, one at each end of the rope. 

"Two little dickie birds sittin' on the wall" the two players jump in 

"One named Peter, one named Paul" each player waves at their name 

"Fly away, Peter, fly away, Paul" the player exits the rope as name is called 

"Don't you come back 'till your birthday's called" 

"January, February...December" the player returns when their month is called 

"Now fly away, fly away, fly away all" players both exit the rope.
