A penney for a spool of thread,
A penney for a needle.
That's the way the money goes.
Pop! goes the weasel.
Up and down the City Road,
In and out of the Eagle,
That's the way the money goes.
Pop! goes the weasel.
Half a pound of tuppenney rice,,
Half a pound of treacle,
Mix it up and make it nice,
Pop! goes the weasel.
