FOLLOW ME.
Children goTo and fro,In a merry, pretty row,Footsteps light,Faces bright;’Tis a happy sight.Swiftly turning round and round,Never look upon the ground;Follow me,Full of glee,Singing merrily.Work is done,Play’s begun;Now we have our laugh and fun;Happy days,Pretty plays,And no naughty ways.Holding fast each other’s hand,We’re a happy little band;Follow me,Full of glee,Singing merrily.Birds are free,So are we;And we live as happily.Work we do,Study too,For we learn “Twice two;”Then we laugh, and dance, and sing,Gay as larks upon the wing;Follow me,Full of glee,Singing merrily.
