St. Nicholas/Volume 40/Number 9/Vacation Song
A GAY VACATION SONG
BY LOUISE SEYMOUR HASBROUCK
(To be sung with a hpp, skip, and jump)
Oh, I know what I ’ll do, I ’ll do, As soon as school is through, is through! I ’ll shout and play The whole long day, And never once be blue, be blue! And I know where I ’ll be, I ’ll be, As soon as I am free, so free! With daisies white In green fields bright, And very near the sea, the sea! |
And when I hear the rain, the rain, Go “plop” against the window-pane, I ’ll find such books And cozy nooks, I ’ll hate to stir again, again! And then when sunmer 's done, all done, And we are brown with sun, with sun, And days are cool, We ‘ll go to school, And, after all, that ’s fun, that ’s fun! |
