Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the roses)
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the pretty roses)
Roses, they can't hurt you
(Roses, they can't hurt you)
Roses, they can't hurt you
(Roses, they can't hurt you)
Sally, don't you go, don't you go downtown
Sally, don't you go, don't you go downtown
The saddest thing in the whole wide world
Is to see your baby with another girl
Sally go 'round, go 'round and 'round
(Oh, Sally, don't you go, don't you go downtown)
Sally go 'round, go 'round and 'round
(Oh, Sally, don't you go, don't you go downtown)
You know, the saddest thing in the whole wide world
Is to see your baby with another girl
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the roses)
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the pretty roses)
They won't tell your secret
(Oh, they won't tell your secret)
They won't tell your secret
(Oh no, they won't tell your secret)
Sally, baby, cry, let your hair hang down
Sally, baby, cry, let your hair hang down
Sit and cry where the roses grow, you can
Sit and cry now that no one knows
Sally go 'round, hanging around
(Oh, Sally, baby, cry, let your hair hang down)
Sally go 'round, hanging around
(Oh, let your hair hang down)
I wanna tell you that the saddest thing in the whole wide world
Is to see your baby with another girl
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the roses)
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the roses)
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally, Sally go around the roses)
Sally go 'round the roses
(Sally go 'round the roses)
