I like to catch the brass ring on the merry go round
The merry go round that's me
I like to play croquet or embroider or crochet
But I like to participate in my own way
I like the hobby horse on the merry go round
The one that goes up and down
And when the kid in the rear says 'you ride like Paul Revere'
On the merry merry go round
I caught the brass ring on the merry merry go round
I'm getting dizzy on the merry merry go round
Don't tell my mother on the merry merry go round
This is my last time the merry merry go round
I fooled you last time on the merry merry go round!
