Old Farmer Johnson
Along the trail on a summers eve
A full moon so bright it lights up the sky
The cracking of the branches from my horses hoofs
Yet a great silence across the opened brook
Along the path I see up ahead is old farmer Johnson
Walking ahead I can tell by his limp he is weary and tired
I ride up beside him and I said hello
Well hello Susan how do you do
I see your out ridding this warm summer eve
I am well farmer Johnson do you need a ride
Why thank you Susan I am much obliged
I stop the carriage to let him in and he smiles with a grin
As we ride slowly down this path with a full moon over the path
I feel farmer Johnson touching my knee
Oh farmers Johnson what are you doing
Do you not like my hand fondling your knee
Oh yes farmer Johnson that feels quit good to me
His hand keeps moving in places I cannot say
Is your husband home he asks with a sly look in his eyes
Oh farmer Johnson you know where he is
Where might he be
He is sitting right next to me.
