Peter, Paul & Mary - Autumn To May Lyrics
Oh once I had a little dog, his color it was brownI taught him for to whistle, to sing and dance and runHis legs they were fourteen yards long, his ears so very wideAround the world in half a day, upon him I could ride.Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.Oh once I had a little frog, he wore a vest of redHed lean upon his silver cane, a top hat on his headHed speak of far off places, of things to see and do,Of all the kings and queens hed met while sailing in a shoe.Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.Oh once I had a flock of sheep, they grazed upon a featherId keep them in a music box from wind or rainy weatherAnd every day the sun would shine, theyd fly all through the townTo bring me back some golden rings, candy by the pound.Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.Oh once I had a downey swan, she was so very frailShe sat upon an oyster shell and hatched me out a snailThe snail had changed into a bird, the bird to butterflyAnd he who tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie.Sing tarry-o day, sing, autumn to may.
