Little Birds
Says the robin, as he flew,
'When I was a young man
I chose to,
If one didn't love me
The other one would.
Don't you think my notion good?'
...
Says the blackbird to the crow
'Why do the white folks hate us so?
For ever since old,
Adam he was born,
It's been our trade to pull our corn'
...
'Hoot' says the owl,
With his head so wide,
'It's a lonesome day and a lonesome night.
I thought I heard some pretty girl say,
'She court all night and sleep all day''
...
'No, no!' said the turtle dove,

'That's no way for to gain his love.
If you want to gain his heart's delight
You must keep him away
Both day and night'
