1

A half a pound of two-penny soap,

A half a pound of treacle.

That's the way the money goes.

Pop, goes the weasel.



Refrain:

Whenever - - - - 's out of the house

And the monkey's on the table

Take a stick and knock him off.

Pop, goes the weasel.



2

A penny for a spool of thread,

A penny for a needle.

That's the way the money goes.

Pop, goes the weasel.



The refrain tune is different from the verse, starting an octave higher.
