The Swing
How do you like to go up in a swing?
Up in the air so blue
Oh, I do think it's the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
'Til I look down on the garden green
Down on the roof so brown
Up in the air, I go flying again
Up in the air and down
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
Up in the air so blue
Oh, I do think it's the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
'Til I look down on the garden green
Down on the roof so brown
Up in the air, I go flying again
Up in the air and down
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
Up in the air and over the wall
'Til I can see so wide (see so wide)
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside
