NO1 HIT SONG BETWEEN 1950 AND THE PRESENT DAY

[CBAL1960]

Can you tell me the title of a hit song with the words "Mary Mary quite contrary
How does your garden grow
With silver bells and cockle-shells
And pretty maids all in a row "
In it 

[epstein]

Walkin' The Dog by Aerosmith has almost identical lyrics....anybody else got any ideas?

[astondog]

Prince Buster used nursery rymes in his Big records

[romko]

part of that rhyme was used by psychedelic band Can on a track on their Monster Movie album from 1969, but that isnt a "hit"!
