Children play ring around a rosie
Laugh and sing like you always do
Children play ring around a rosie
Mommy will be home in a day or two.

Remember the story I read to you
When I tucked you in last night
About the pretty princess
Who loved the party life.

Well, that's the way that mommy is
But she'll be home after while
So dry your tears my little ones
And give your daddy a smile.

Children play ring around a rosie
Laugh and sing like you always do
Children play ring around a rosie
Mommy will be home in a day or two.

Mommy's away at the castle now
Where party people go
She's likely dancing with the king
Her pretty eyes aglow.

But she'll be home on Sunday dears
To go to church with us
We'll tell her not to leave again
'Cause we love her so much.

Children play ring around a rosie
Laugh and sing like you always do
Children play ring around a rosie
Mommy will be home in a day or two...
