When Mother Natures cleaning house
She likes to have things fresh and clean.
And so she lifts her carpet brown
And puts a lovely new one down,
OF softest, brightest green.
TITS figured we'll with violets. ~
The prettiest patterns ever seen;
It spreads and reaches everywhere,
And covers places poor and bare,
This carpet made Of green.
And oh, we children love to rou
Upon it's surface soft and cleanl
Better than rugs on polished foorss
Better than anything indoors,
The carpet made Of green! /
