Pop Goes the Weasel

Pop! Goes the Weasel - Muffin Songs

Composed by：Traditional

All around the cobbler's bench

The monkey chased the weasel

The monkey thought 'twas all in fun

Pop goes the weasel

Johnny's got the whooping cough and

Mary's got the measles

That's the way the money goes

Pop goes the weasel

A penny for a spool of thread

A penny for a needle

That's the way the money goes

Pop goes the weasel

You may try to sew and sew

And never make anything regal

So roll it up and let it go

Pop goes the weasel

A painter would his lover to paint

He stood before the easel

The monkey jumped all over the paint

Pop goes the weasel

When his sweetheart she did laugh

His temper got so lethal

He tore the painting up in half

Pop goes the weasel

My son and I went to the fair

We saw a lot of people

We spent a lot of money there

Pop goes the weasel

I got sick from all the sun

My sonny boy got the measles

Still we had a lot of fun

Pop goes the weasel

I climbed up and down the coast

To find a golden eagle

I climbed the rocks and thought I was close

Pop goes the weasel

But alas I lost my way

Saw nothing but a seagull

I tore my pants and killed the day

Pop goes the weasel

I went to the grocery store

I thought a little cheese'll

Be good to catch a mouse on the floor

Pop goes the weasel

But the mouse was very bright

He wasn't a mouse to wheedle

He took the cheese and said Good night

Pop goes the weasel

All around the cobbler's bench

The monkey chased the weasel

The monkey thought 'twas all in fun

Pop goes the weasel

I've no time to wait and sigh

I've no time to teasel

Kiss me quick I'm off goodbye

Pop goes the weasel

All around the cobbler's bench

The monkey chased the weasel

The monkey thought 'twas all in fun

Pop goes the weasel

Johnny's got the whooping cough and

Mary's got the measles

That's the way the money goes

Pop goes the weasel

Pop goes the weasel
