Ring-Around-A-Rosy Rag
words and music by Arlo Guthrie
I had a friend, a friend I could trust
He went into the park and got busted
Doing the ring-a-round-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-a-round-a-rosy rag
CHORUS:
Ring around, ring around rose
Touch your nose and blow your toes and mind
Doing the ring-around-a-rosy rag
(It really was a drag)
Ring around, ring-around-a-rose
Touch your nose and blow your toes and mind
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 Philidelphia up tight
One mass ring-around-a-rosy
In the middle of the night?
We all should do the ring-around-a-rosy rag

I wanna scream
I wanna jump for joy, and I want everyone to know!
I wanna scream
I wanna jump for joy, and I gotta let the whole world know!
R: Jump for joy
Jump for joy
Jump for joy
Jump for joy
A: Everybody jump jump
Jump for joy
Everybody jump jump
Everybody jump jump
Jump for joy!
A: Chrous
R: I wanna jump for joy, J-O-Y
'Cause Cupid shot your arrow in the sky
You know the feeling, jumping and screaming
Here come the angels marked by demons
You
