The Bird Counting Song |
«Hi"said the little leather winged bat |
«I'll tell you the reason that |
The reason that I fly in the night |
Is because I lost my hearts delight» |
«Hi"said the woodpecker sitting on a fence |
«Once I courted a handsome wench |
She got saucy and from me fled |
Ever since then my head’s been red» |
«Hi"said the bluebird as she flew |
«If I were a young man I’d have two |
If one got saucy and wanted to go |
I’d have a new string for my bow» |
«Hi"said the blackbird to the crow |
«What makes mankind hate us so |
Ever since Noah’s been born |
We’ve been pulling up young green corn» |
