Living
Fishing Time
From Oklahoma Sunshine (1905)
Living
Yonder by the river
Grasses growing green,
And the wild birds singing
Over all the scene!
Yonder by the river
Violets are blue,
And the skies are dropping
Tender dreams of you!
Yonder by the river,
Where the ripples sing,
In the tangled thicket
Burns a crimson wing!
Yonder by the river!
We have waited long;
Let us greet the sunshine
With a smile and song!
