All the trees are sleeping all the winds are stillA
All the flocks of fleecy clouds have wandered past the hillA
Through the noonday silence down the woods of JuneB
Hark a little hunter's voice comes running with a tuneB
Hide and seekC
When I speakC
You must answer meD
Call againE
Merry menE
Coo ee coo ee coo eeD

Now I hear his footsteps rustling through the grassF
Hidden in my leafy nook shall I let him passF
Just a low soft whistle quick the hunter turnsG
Leaps upon me laughing rolls me in the fernsG
Hold him fastH
Caught at lastH
Now you're it you seeD
Hide your eyeI
Till I cryI
Coo ee coo ee coo eeD

Long ago he left me long and long agoJ
Now I wander through the world and seek him high and lowJ
Hidden safe and happy in some pleasant placeK
Ah if I could hear his voice I soon should find his faceK
Far awayL
Many a dayL
Where can Barney beD
Answer dearM
Don't you hearN
Coo ee coo ee coo eeD
-
Birds that in the spring time thrilled his heart with joyO
Flowers he loved to pick for me mind me of my boyO
Surely he is waiting till my steps come nighI
Love may hide itself awhile but love can never dieI
Heart be gladP
The little ladP
Will call some day to theeD
Father dearM
Heaven is hereN
Coo ee coo ee coo eeD
