Autumn to May

Oh, once I had a little dog, his color, it was brown
 I taught him for to whistle, to sing and dance and run
 His legs, they were 14 yards long, his ears so very wide
 Around the world in half a day, upon him, I could ride
 Sing Tarry-O Day
 Sing, autumn to May
 Oh, once I had a little frog, he wore a vest of red
 He'd lean upon his silver cane, a top hat on his head
 He'd speak of far off places, of things to see and do
 And all the kings and queens he'd met while sailing in a shoe
 Sing Tarry-O Day
 Sing, autumn to May
 Oh, once I had a flock of sheep, they grazed upon a feather
 I'd keep them in a music box from wind or rainy weather
 And every day, the sun would shine, they'd fly all through the town
 To bring me back some golden rings, candy by the pound
 Sing Tarry-O Day
 Sing, autumn to May
 Oh, once I had a Downey swan, she was so very frail
 She sat upon an oyster shell and hatched me out a snail
 The snail had changed into a bird, the bird to butterfly
 And he who tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie
 Sing Tarry-O Day
 Sing, Autumn to May
