Traditional
Pop Goes the Weasel
[Version 1]
Half a pound of tuppenny rice
Half a pound of treacle
That’s the way the money goes
Pop! goes the weasel
Up and down the City Road
In and out the Eagle
That’s the way the money goes
Pop! goes the weasel
[Version 2]
A penny for a spool of thread
A penny for a needle
That’s the way the money goes
Pop! goes the weasel
[Version 3]
Every night when I go out
The monkey's on the table
Take a stick and knock it off
Pop goes the weasel
[Version 4]
Round and round the mulberry bush
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey stopped to pull up his socks
And Pop goes the weasel
[Version 5]
I've no time to plead and pine
I've no time to wheedle
Kiss me quick, and then I'm gone
Pop! Goes the weasel
[Version 6]
All around the cobbler's Bench
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey thought it all in fun
Pop, goes the weasel
