Ring-a-ring-o' Ruth, goin' round and round.....
  
Ring-a-ring-o' Ruth, goin' round and round
  
She dare not lose it, but she couldn't keep it
Not anymore
No, not anymore!
  
For the rings of Ruth
The one she wears, oh!
They keep her in her place
He keeps her mind in place.........
  
Dare not spill your red treasure on his floor
Oh poor woman, watch your step
Contain yourself...........
  
Daren't let him in, oh Ruth
No, daren't let him in, uh-oh Ruthie
Why lug around his le-ga-cy in your mind?
Of relentless rings of insanity.....goin' round and round.......
  
Ring-a-ring-o' Ruth, goin' round and round
  
Come on home, dear Ruth and flush 'em fears away
Watching you, my Ruth, I can see you from afar
Won't hurt you anymore, won't make you run away
Your heart will sing the Truth that the sands of Time will veil.
  
So, come on home, dear Ruth
Come home......
Come home!
