'tis Autumn

Introd.: Old Father time checked so there’d be no doubt Called on the North wind   to  come on out Then cupped his hands so proudly to shout "La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum ’tis autumn"    Trees say they’re tired they’ve born too much fruit Charmed on the wayside there’s no dispute Now shedding leaves they don’t give a hoot   La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum ’tis autumn      Then the birds got together to chirp about the weather Mmmm - mmm - mmm - mmm After makin’ their decision in birdie-like precision Turned about and made a beeline to the south My holding you close really is no crime   Ask the birds and the trees and old Father Time It’s just to help the mercury climb La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum ’tis autumn      Interlude: It’s just to help the mercury climb La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum ’tis autumn
