Snickerty Nick
A good place to wait
For my love to come by.
Go ’way now, all of you,
Leave me alone
On the peacefullest mountain-top
Ever was known.
Go on a-scrimmagin’
All over town
For a stove-pipe hat
And a purple silk gown.
But leave me my cabin
High up as the moon,
Here where my true love
Will come to me soon.
GIANT
Stop your noise, Nicky. Go and find the little boy and bring him back to me.
