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)
