[Version 1] Half a pound of tuppenny rice Half a pound of treacle That's the way the money goes Pop! goes the weasel Up and down the City Road In and out the Eagle That's the way the money goes Pop! goes the weasel [Version 2] A penny for a spool of thread A penny for a needle That's the way the money goes Pop! goes the weasel [Version 3] Every night when I go out The monkey's on the table Take a stick and knock it off
Pop goes the weasel [Version 4] Round and round the mulberry bush The monkey chased the weasel The monkey stopped to pull up his socks And Pop goes the weasel [Version 5] I've no time to plead and pine I've no time to wheedle Kiss me quick, and then I'm gone Pop! Goes the weasel [Version 6] All around the cobbler's Bench The monkey chased the weasel The monkey thought it all in fun Pop, goes the weasel
