RING-AROUND-A-ROSY RAG
(Arlo Guthrie)

I had a friend, a friend I could trust
He went into the park and got busted
Doing the ring-around-a-rosy rag
Went in the park late at night
And he put a lot of people over eighty up-tight
He was doing the ring-around-a-rosy rag

cho: Ring around, ring around rose
Touch your nose and blow your toes
And mind, doing the ring-around-a-rosy rag
I said, ring around, ring-around-a-rosy
Touch your nose and blow your toesey
When you're doing the ring-around-a-rosy rag

We ought to send officer Joe Strange
To some Australian mountain range
So we all can do the ring-around-a-rosy rag
Would you like to put Philadelphia up tight
One mass ring-around-a-rosy in the middle of the night?
Yes, we all should do the ring-around-a-rosy rag
