Mushroom Hill, the Summer House

MUSHROOM HILL, THE SUMMER HOUSE The summertime holidays upon Mushroom Hill The summer house is finished as painted new There as children gather you can feel the thrill Window glass polished as to get a better view The summer house is finished as painted new Bright cushions as placed on the wicker chairs Window glass polished as to get a better view Children fill the sills with toys and teddy bears Bright cushions as placed on the wicker chairs Blackbirds sitting peering from the roof eaves Children fill the sills with toys and teddy bears A Magpie lingers to see what bits it can thieve Blackbirds sitting peering from the roof eaves Mums bring cakes and freshly made lemonade A Magpie lingers to see what bits it can thieve Fresh bread sandwiches as lovingly handmade Mums bring cakes and freshly made lemonade Dogs bark in joy sending the cats up a height Fresh bread sandwiches as lovingly handmade With all staying put as long as it remains light Dogs bark in joy sending the cats up a height There as children gather you can feel the thrill With all staying put as long as it remains light The summertime holidays upon Mushroom Hill Indiana Shaw . . . : )
