JUST now I thinkA
I 'd like to beB
At the river's brinkA
Beneath a treeB
And stretched out flatC
On the cooling grass Just gazing atC
The clouds that passD
Like toy ships fairE
In a sea of blueF
But I can't be thereE
I have work to doF
-
Or I 'd like to beB
In an orchard gayG
Where every treeB
Is in bloom todayG
Where the pink and whiteH
Of the blossoms sweetI
Blot out the frightH
Of the city streetI
Where there's nothing to seeB
But what is trueF
But that cannot beB
For I've work to doF
-
Oh I'd like to stealJ
From my little denK
From the great unrealJ
And the haunts of menK
To the joyous truthL
Of the open airE
To the honest youthL
That I left back thereE
To the boy I wasM
In the days of oldN
But I can't becauseO
I 'in a slave to goldN
