May I Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot

May I Lyrics

    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
