Lyrics Woody Guthrie – Merry–Go–Round

Oh, come and see the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round, the merry-go-round
Come and see the merry-go-round
Go round and round and round

Come let’s rub the pony’s hair
Come let’s rub the pony’s hair
Lots of ponies that we can ride
Round and round and round

Now let’s climb on the pony’s back
Now let’s climb on the pony’s back
Pick up my reins and buckle my straps
And round and round and round

It’s faster now my pony runs
Up to the moon and down to the sun
My pony runs to the music and drums
Round and round and round

Now he runs as fast as the winds
And gallops and trots and dances a jig
Pony’s tired and he wants to slow down
Round and round and round

The pony stops and off I climb
Off I climb, off I climb
I’ll come back and ride some other time
Round and round and round
