Well, I'm personally not so sure anymore.

I also had heard the traditional view that "Ring around the Rosie" was associated to the Black Plague that ravaged Europe in the 1500's (Rosie referring to the skin rash that soon developed into open sores)

But here is a dissenting opinion that may be worth reading (I found it while making doubly sure of the origin, but was left doubly unsure after reading it).

Also, the website itself is pretty cool if you decide to browse around.
