With the singin' birds an the bum'lebeas.
A-knowin' thet can do as please,
Than to live what folks call life of ease,

Fer l really don't 'zactly understan'
Where the comfort is fer any man
In walkin' hot bricks and usin fan,
An enjoyin' himself as he says he can,
Up thar in the city.
Its kinder lonesome mebbe you'll say,
Alvin out here day after day,
In this kinder easy, careless way,
but an hour out here is better'n a day
Up thar in the city.
AS fer that, JUS look at the flowers aroun'
A-peep;n' their heads up all over the groun',
An the fruit abendin' the trees way down
You don't find such things as these in town
Or ruther in the city.
As said afore, such things as these,
The flowers, the birds an the bum'lebees,
An ivin' out here among the trees,
mere you can take your ease an do as yol

Makes it better'n tn. city.
