Lordy! what a summer-timeFer to sing!But my words flops out o' rhyme, And they wingFurder yit beyent the viewThan the swallers ever flew, Er a mortal wanted to -'Less his eyeStruck the skyEz he kind o' sort o' thought he'd like to fly! Ef I Could sing - sweet and low -And my tongueCould twitter, don't you kw, Ez I sungOf the summer-time, 'y Jings!All the words and birds and thingsThat kin warble, and hes wings, Would jes' swearAnd declareThat they never heerd sich singin' anywhere!
