GOh, come and see the Gmerry-go-round,
The Dmerry-go-round, the Gmerry-go-round!
GCome and see the Gmerry-go-round
DGo round and round and Ground!
[Verse]
GCome let's rub the Gpony's hair,
DCome let's rub the Gpony's hair,
GLots of ponies Gthat we can ride
DRound and round and Ground.
[Verse]
GNow let's climb on the Gpony's back,
DNow let's climb on the Gpony's back,
GPick up my reins and Gbuckle my straps,
DAnd round and round and Ground.

GIt's faster now my Gpony runs
DUp to the moon and Gdown to the sun;
GMy pony runs to the Gmusic and drums,
DRound and round and Ground.

GNow he runs as fGast as the winds
DAnd gallops and trots and dGances a jig;
GPony's tired and he Gwants to slow down
DRound and round and Ground.
[Verse]
GThe pony stops and Goff I climb,
DOff I climb, Goff I climb;
GI'll come back and ride Gsome other time
DRound and round and Ground.
