Come into the garden. Maud.
And see how the weeds have grown.
They're getting SO thick,
And growing so quick,
/ can't pull 'em all alone.
So come Into the garden. Maud,
And give me helping hand.
There's a lot of witchgrass
In the lettuce, alaSi
And it's growing to beat the band!
Come into the garden. Maud,
The lettuce is bad,
And the beets make me sad.
= But the onion bed is the worst.
And tackle the pesky weeds
Without any fuss,
For woe is us,
If they ever scatter their seeds!
Come into the garden. Maud.
For the black bat, night. has flown,
There's plenty OF work,
So don't try to shirk
And leave it to me alone
And Danish, that naughty sheer.
And kneel down in the dew,
For it's right up to You
To help get this garden clear.
