when you were just little chap
About "a tall as Sc"
Sometimes your skies grew very dark.
And you were full Of woe.
And you were prone to run away
And leave not trace nor track;
But oh. when night came ON how glad
You were to wander back.
You got out where the woods were dense
And everything was strange;
You had a nameless dread Of what
Lay far beyond the range.
And so you turned your fearful face
To the old chimney stack:
And how much more secure you felt
When you were going back.
Again, when you were In your teens
Headstrong. as boys viii be.
When you and your stern parents failed
AT something to agree.
You packed up in hun and left.
For where. you had no ken.
Declaring you would ne'er return
Beneath their roof again.
But by and by you softensd down
And thought Of home and friends
And. rushing back at close Of day,
You sought to make amends.
Ali friends are friends. and home Is
home.
In palace. cot or shack:
And though. sometimes. we run away.
It's good TO wander back.
