On the Farm

In the fields crops are growing
On the roof a rooster is crowing

In the yard hens are clucking 
In the paddock the stallion is bucking

Near the back door baby chicks are cheeping
In the pond frogs are leaping

From the pasture donkeys bray
And the lively horses neigh

The barn cats are slowly creeping
While the farmer’s wife does housekeeping

In the barn cows are mooing
And in the rafters doves are cooing

The frisky collie barked
As the tractor is parked

In the pen the pigs grunt
Except for the cute little runt

By the pond the duck quacks
While the coon hound tracks
