Sticks and stones will break my bones But I always will be true And when your mama is dead and gone I'll sing this lullaby just for youAnd what becomes of all the little boys Who never comb their hair? Lined up all around the block On the nickel over thereSo you better bring a bucket There is a hole in the pail And if you don't get my letter Then you'll know that I'm in jailAnd what becomes of all the little boys Who never say their prayers? They're sleepin' like a baby On the nickel over thereAnd if you chew tobacco Wish upon a star You'll find out where the scarecrows sit Just like punchlines between the carsAnd I know a place where a royal flush Can never beat a pair And even Thomas Jefferson Is on the nickel over thereSo ring around the rosie Sleepin' in the rain You're always late for supper Man you let me down, let me down againI thought I heard a mockingbird Roosevelt knows where Skip the light, with grady tuck On the nickel over thereSo what becomes of all the little boys Who run away from home? Well the world just keeps gettin' bigger Once you get out on your ownSo here's to all the little boys Sandman takes you where Sleepin' with a pillowman On the nickel over thereClimb up through that button hole Fall right up the stairs I'll show you where the short dogs grow On the nickel over there
