[Verse 1]
Prince or pauper, beggar man or thing
Play the game with every flower you bring

[Chorus]
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion

[Verse 2]
One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock chimes
Dandelions don't care about the time

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Though you're older now its just the same
You can play this dandelion game
When you're finished with your childlike prayers
Well, you know you should wear it

[Verse 4]
Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailors lives
Rich man, poor man, beautiful, daughters wives

[Chorus]

[Verse 5]
Little girls, and boys come out to play
Bring your dandelions to blow away

[Chorus]

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
