64. Roaming through the woodland

1 Gaily we'll roam o'er the field and the wood,
merrily onward we'll go;
Strolling 'mid flowers and grasses and buds,
Out in the valleys below.

Chorus:
We'll roam thro' the woodland, the valley and dale,
Cheerful and happy we'll be;
With lovers and playmates, we'll ramble o'er hill,
Happy, glad, merry and free.

2 Happy and merry together we'll roam,
Over the woodland today;
Studying lessons in nature so grand,
Onward we'll go and be gay. [Chorus]

3 Birds are all singing, the robin is out,
Hear the jaybird in the tree;
Merrily onward we'll ramble about,
Glad and lighthearted we'll be. [Chorus]
