GUEST,Allen Lyr Req: Ring-a-ring-of-roses (25) RE: Lyr Req: Ring-a-ring-of-roses 08 Apr 10


I'm from California. I was born in 1986 and was looked after in part by an English lady from Manchester. I can't remember for sure but I believe she taught me the rhyme as well as the game.

Ring around the rosey
Pockets full of posies
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down...
    DEAD!

It was played in a circle holding hands. The last person to sit or lie down on "DEAD" was out. You were also out if you went down on "down". The last person left won.
