No, No, Nanette - Original Broadway Cast: Too Many Rings Around Rosie

in my early childhood days
 when december seemed like may
 ring around the rosie with the boys
 i used to play
 Tommy, Andy, Harold, Joe
 eat my candy then would go
 i tried to please them all, you know
 thats why not one became my beau
 Too many rings around Rosie
 will never get rosie a ring
 too many beaus when she should have one
 you know will never bring her
 a ring around her finger
 One little name to remember
 is better than having a string
 it doesn't hurt to flirt a bit
 just use it as bait
 make your match
 make your catch
 before its too late
 to many rings around rosie
 will never get rosie a ring
 men are only grown up boys
 pretty ladies are their toys
 here today
 tomorrow they're in search of other joys
 still its nice to have a few
 all go loco over you
 still one ring to call your own
 is worth a half a dozen on the phone
 too many rings around rosie
 will never get rosie a ring
 too many beaus
 when she should have one
 you know will never bring her
 a ring around her finger
 one little name to remember
 is better than having a string
 it doesn't hurt to flirt a bit
 just use it as bait
 make your match
 make your catch
 before its too late
 cuz too many rings around rosie
 will never get rosie a
 poor little rosie a
 never get rosie
 a ring
