May I

Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

Finders keepers losers weepers

Ring around the rosy

And I'll catch you if I can

And if you don't say may I

Then you'll have to start again

But first you must indulge me

And count from one to ten

Let the game begin

I adore you when you touch me

Pin the tail upon the donkey

You will surely win

And if you don't say may I

Then I'll pass the cake around

And I won't give you any

But you won't make a sound

You don't eat soap anyhow

Red light green light

Blue light yellow light

You can take three giant steps

Or a baby step will do

But if you don't say may I

Then I'll march you out the door

Where you'll be contemplating

The numbers one to four

I hope you're keeping score

Cause if you don't say may I

Then I'll get you with the hose

And spoil your Sunday clothes

Will it please you if I tease you

While you're at the spindry

I'll pass the pie around

But you won't make a sound

You don't eat blackbird anyhow

There's four and twenty reasons why it can't be wrong

How long have you been gone

Finders keepers losers weepers

Peter Peter pumpkin eater

Wear your sneakers around sound sleepers
