It is a popular children's song in the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, and Canada, and is often sung by children on bus trips to keep themselves amused. It has a very repetitive rhythm, making the song easy for a large number of people to sing, in a manner similar to the song "99 Bottles of Beer". It is based on fellow traditional British song "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush". The song is also sometimes sung to the tune of "Buffalo Gals", as in the version done by Raffi.

text: Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush (Traffic song) "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush" is a single by Traffic. It is the title song to the film "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush", and features all four members of Traffic singing a joint lead, though the bridge and parts of the chorus have Steve Winwood singing unaccompanied. The single uses an edited version of the song, with the intro removed. When released in late 1967, the single cracked the UK Top 10. Footage of the band acting out the song was commissioned by The Beatles for possible inclusion in the film "Magical Mystery Tour" but was not used in the final edit. It is now included in the special features of the 2012 DVD/Blu-ray edition of the film.
