Select language to translate this lyric

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
