Lyrics
Now here’s another little children’s play song
They gonna play, and they gonna put one inside the ring
And they all gonna be going around and they gonna sing
And this one, in the ring, is sitting down in a chair
They gonna give this one in the chair a hankie
And when they holler, «Rise, Sally, rise, wipe your weeping eyes,»
she’s gonna rise out of the chair
And when they say «fly to the east and fly to the west, fly to the one you love
the best,» she’s gonna fly and catch one that’s going around the ring and catch
him by the hand
Gonna put him in the ring and he’s gonna sit down in the chair what Sally got
out of
Now here’s what they’re gonna sing while they all go 'round the ring
Little Sally Walker, sitting in a saucer
Weeping and a-moaning like a turtle dove
Rise, Sally, rise, wipe your weepin' eyes
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
Now it’s gonna be Jimmy Walker, now it’s a little boy
Don’t care who get in that ring, it’s gotta be Walker
Little Jimmy Walker, sitting in a saucer
Weeping and a-moaning like a turtle dove
Rise, Jimmy, rise, wipe your weepin' eyes
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
Little Charlie Walker, sittin' in a saucer
Weeping and a-moaning like a turtle dove
Rise, Charlie, rise, wipe your weepin' eyes
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
Little Jenny Walker, sittin' in a saucer
Weeping and a-moaning like a turtle dove
Rise, Jenny, rise, wipe your weepin' eyes
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
Little Wally Walker, sittin' in a saucer
Weeping and a-moaning like a turtle dove
Rise, Wally, rise, wipe your weepin' eyes
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
Fly to the east, fly to the west
Fly to the one that you love the best
