Best Answer

You are probably asking about the song and nursery rhyme, "Ring a Ring o' Roses," which is often said to have come into being because of the Black Death. In fact, this piece was first published in 1881, and the association with the Black Death was not made in print before World War II. So the association would appear to be a myth that survives because it can easily be believed.

There is a link to the plague interpretation of an article on the nursery rhyme below.
