Prince or pauper, beggar man or king
Play the game with every blow you bring
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four
o'clock, five
Dandelions don't care about the time
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
Though you're older now, it's just the same
You can play the dandelion game
When you're finished with your childlike prayers
Well you know you should wear it
Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor's life
Rich man, poor man, beautiful daughters, wives
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
Little girls and boys come out to play - yes
Bring your dandelions to blow away
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
Blow away dandelion
