|Hate to break this to you Spike (ok, that's a lie) but in the US, it's:
|
|Ring around the rosies
|pocket full of posies
|ashes, ashes, we all fall down.

Well, I *did* say CORRECT rhyme....
The yanks obviously changed it, can't imagine why...

That rhyme's been around since *BEFORE* america was discovered....
