Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
They won't tell your secret
No the roses won't tell your secret
Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown
Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown
(The) saddest thing in this whole world
Is to see my baby love another girl
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round those roses (go go)
The roses they can't hurt you
I know the roses they can't hurt you
Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown
Sally please don't go, don't you go downtown
(The) saddest thing in this whole world
Is to see my baby love another girl
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
Sally go round the roses
Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown
Sally don't you go, don't you go downtown
(The) saddest thing in this whole world
Is to see your baby love another girl
Sally don't you go now Sally...
Look out Sally
Look out Sally
Sally go round the roses
Sally go up go down go round go round now
Sally go round the roses
Yeah Sally....
You bad girl
Watch out now Sally
