I've never heard this version from anyone else:
Ring around the rosey,
Pocket full of posey,
Johnny's in the sugar bowl,
We all fall down.

Song and Gestures
Eensy weensy spider went up the water spout (thumb and fore finger of each hand are used to climb) down came the rain and washed the spider out (both hands come floating down) out came the sun (hands form a circle around the head) and dried up all the rain and the eensy weensy spider went up the spout again (again use the thumb and fore finger of each hand to climb).
In kindergarten I learned the song Eensy Weensy Spider and the actions to it.
