I'm looking over a four leaf clover

Farewell ev'ry old familiar face,
It's time to go, it's time to go
Backward backward to the little place
I left behind, so long ago
Now watch Mister Casey Jones
Carry this lazy bones
I should arrive in the day
Only wait till I communicate
Here's just what I'll say:

I'm looking over a four-leaf clover
That I overlooked before
Now one leaf is the sunshine.the second is the rain.
Third are the roses that grow in the lane.
No need complaining, the one remaining
Is someone that I adore.
I'm looking over a four-leaf clover
That I overlooked before.

Hello homestead in the new-mown hay
I'm glad I'm here, I'm glad I'm here
Hello humble mill across the way
Beside the pond so cool and clear
Right to my sweeties home
Oh what a place to roam
She'll be as glad as can be
Up the trail and over hill and dale
Don't you envy me

I'm looking over a four-leaf clover
That I overlooked before
One leaf is sweetheart, the second is dad
Third is the best pal that I ever had
No need complaining, the one remaining
Is home where I'll weep no more
I'm looking over a four-leaf clover
That I overlooked before.
