Examples of rhymes & cheers are almost always posted the way that readers send them to this website. Posting examples written this way may result in difficulty understanding the examples. However, I believe that posting examples in their original form preserves the examples' flavor & authenticity. I apologize to those persons who may have difficulty understanding these examples.

Also, for the sake of folkloric research, please include the following demographical information: where you learned the cheer (please include the city & state if within the USA, and the nation, if outside the USA); when you learned this cheer (year or decade such as 2008, the 1990s, or the mid 1970s); and who performed this cheer (age, gender, race/ethnicity).

When Lily wrote "bring it on", she was referring to a hit 2000 American made movie about high school cheerleaders. See
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0204946/ for information & photos about the movie Bring It On. Also see "Totally For Sure" cheers below on this page for examples of another cheer that came from the 2006 sequel to that movie, Bring It On: All Or Nothing.

Editor:
"My back aches" etc. is a 'floating verse' that appears in a number of children's rhymes & cheers. See several versions of these rhymes under the title "Bang Bang Choo Choo Train" on the "B" pages of Cocojams Cheeleader Cheers section and Cocojams' School Yard Taunts section.

All Across The Nation (Version #2)
All Across the Nation this is a cheer i teach to my jr. pee wee's...its really cute and its kind of in a sing song way. All across the nation theres a new football sensation that makes you want to slide and move from side to side (for the first two lines your going side to side first slapping you knees then clap then the second line you have only one arm on a broken T and slide to one side then last line have you hands on your hips and shake your bum from side to side)
-Stacy; 8/8/2007

Alligator, Crocodile (Version #2)
I really like alligator crocodile. So here is my cheer (a another edtion to it).
alligator crocodile let's get crunk for a while ooh get crunk ooh get crunk lemon lime tootie fruity come'on girls let's kick some booty.
-lala; 2/9/2007
Editor:
"Crunk" is a newly coined slang word that may have been formed by combining the words "crazy" & "funk". Crunk has a number of meanings. Among those meanings is "to have a really good time" and "to use a lot of energy or to be on high level, as in high volume for music. In the context of this rhyme, I believe that "let's get crunk" is like saying "let's get hyped"; "let's get excited" and "let's get
energized".
****
Alligator, Crocodile (Version #1)
Alligator, Crocodile
let's get funky for while

A Panther
A panther yeah yeah a panther say what my name is Olivia and they call me Ollie yeah and Im going to show you what this panther can do first you shake it dont break it then you roll it control it then you pop it dont stop it sit down sit down say what sit down
-olivia; 9/16/2006
Editor:
"A Panther" sounds very much like the cheer "A Bulldog". See examples of "A Bulldog" on Cocojams' Foot Stomping Cheers page. My guess is that "Panther" and "Bulldog" are the names of the school's sports teams.

As We Walk To The Valley Of Hershey
As we walk to the valley of Hershey
with the smell of chocolate in the air
The only thing sweeter than candy
is me and my girls here.
All the people around us are haters.
Except for the fans of the Panthers.
The only thing I wanna tell you.
Is don't hate on the Panthers
cause you know you wanna a kiss
-Ebonaye,10 years old (Pittsburgh, PA); 5/9/2008
Editor:
Ebonaye did a stomp stomp clap, stomp stomp clap foot stomping routine while she recited this cheer. At the end of the last line, on the word "kiss", she stuck out her butt to the side and patted it, emphasizing what people should do if they dared to "hate on" her team. I have heard the first line of this cheer given as "Welcome to the Valley of Hershey". (Presumably, "Hershey" is the city in Pennsylvania that is known for its production of chocolate candies). I have also heard the team mentioned in the "except for the fans of the" line given as "the Gators", a community football team. "The Panthers" is the name of the athletic team in the school that Ebonaye attends. Given that the words "haters" and "Gators" rhyme, I believe that students at Ebonaye's school probably got this cheer from the Gators' cheerleading squad.
