Lilac in the Spring

Bloomin’ lilac in the spring

A-takin' me back where

Chickens went a-laying

Plenty of eggs out there

Grandma and Grandpa

Stayed busy with the farm

Drying corn to eatin’ okra

Keepin’ us safe from harm

Cool mornin’, ‘n warm day

Sweet breezes a-blowin’

Sunup and Sundown neigh

While sheep a-baa in the pen

Grandkids runnin’ up ‘n

Down a metal cellar door

With a thunderous bangin’

Entertainin’ ‘em all the more

Billy ‘n Brad barking yon

Probably gone a chasing

Rabbits they’ve happened on

Up under the lilac in the spring
