Ring Around the Rosie

by Anonymous

Ring Around the Rosie, also called Ring a Ring o' Roses is nursery rhyme that first appeared in print in 1881, though it was sung by children holding hands, moving in a circle since the the 1790s. The popular American version is below.

Ring-a-round the rosie,
A pocket full of posies,
Ashes! Ashes!
We all fall down.
