Two by two, and three by three;
And about go we! And about go we!
Oh, you must needs dance and sing,
Which if you refuse to do,
We will pinch you black and blue;
And about go we!
Round about, round about, in a fine ring-a,
Thus we dance, thus we dance, and thus we sing-a;
Trip and go, to and fro, over this green-a,
All about, in and out, for our brave Queen-a.
