Pop! Goes the Weasel

All around the cobbler's bench,
The monkey chased the weasel,
The monkey thought t'was all in fun,
Pop! goes the weasel.
A penny for a spool of thread,
A penny for a needle,
That's the way the money goes,
Pop! goes the weasel

Here's a similar rhyme (or maybe it could be considered a different version of the same rhyme) that I found in A History of Nursery Rhymes (1899) by Percy B. Green:

Half a pound of twopenny rice,
Half a pound of treacle,
Stir it up and make it nice,
Pop goes the weasel.
