PICNIC TIME It's June ag'in, an' in my soul I feel the fillin' joy That's sure to come this time o' year to every little boy; For, every June, the Sunday schools at picnics may be seen, Where "fields beyont the swellin' floods stand dressed in livin' green"; Where little girls are skeered to death with spiders, bugs, and ants, An' little boys get grass stains on their go to meetin' pants. PICNIC TIME IT'S JUNE AGAIN AND IN MY SOUL I FEEL THE FILLIN JOY THAT'S SURE TO COME THIS TIMEY YEAR TO EVERY LITTLE BOY FOR EVERY JUNE THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS AT PICNICS MAY BE SEEN WHERE FIELDS BEYOND THE SWELLEN BLOOD STAND DRESSED IN LIVIN GREEN WHERE LITTLE GIRLS ARE SKEERED TO DEATH WITH SPIDERS BUGS AND ANTS AND LITTLE BOYS GET GRASS STAINS ON THEIR GOLDEN MEATING PANTS
bring An end to this ride to Bumpville; For, though she has uttered no protest or plaint, The calico mare must be blowing and faint-- What's more to the point, I'm blowed if I ain't! So play we have got to Bumpville! THE BROOK I looked in the brook and saw a face-- Heigh-ho, but a child was I! There were rushes and willows in that place, And they clutched at the brook as the brook ran by; And the brook it ran its own sweet way, As a child doth run in heedless play, And as it ran I heard it say: "Hasten with me To the roistering sea That is wroth with the flame of the morning sky!" I look in the brook and see a face-- Heigh-ho, but the years go by! The rushes are dead in the old-time place, And the willows I knew when a child was I. And the brook it seemeth to me to say, As ever it stealeth on its way-- Solemnly now, and not in play: "Oh, come with me To the slumbrous sea That is gray with the peace of the evening sky!" Heigh-ho, but the years go by-- I would to God that a child were I!
