Lyrics
Red light, green light 'round the town
I found a penny on the ground
Met a friend I never know'd
Walkin' down ol' rocky road
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me what you see
Tell me inside out, tell me upside down
All around the block, all around the town
Red, green ol' Rocky road, tell me what you see
Jimmy, come out and play
Well, red Light, green Light, and I'll be it today
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me, what do you see?
Hey, Jimmy Huggins, your name's been called
Come and stand beside the wall
Pick a girl that you know well, you can tell
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me, what do you see?
(Tell me inside out) tell me upside down
(All around the block) all around the town
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me, what do you see?
Jenny, come out and play
Red light, green light, I'll be it today
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me, what do you see?
Little Miss Jenny, don't you hide
Papa's gonna take you for a pony ride
One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes, four
Cross the line, close the door
One potato, two potatoes, three potatoes, four
Cross the line, close the door
Red, green ol' rocky road, tell me, what do you see?
(Tell me, tell me) tell me inside out, tell me upside down
(Tell me, tell me) all around the block, all around the town
Tell me, tell me, tell me
