Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDDEAAFGGHIIHJJ EAAF'Tis fine to play | A |
In the fragrant hay | A |
And romp on the golden load | B |
To ride old Jack | C |
To the barn and back | C |
Or tramp by a shady road | B |
To pause and drink | D |
At a mossy brink | D |
Ah that is the best of joy | E |
And so I say | A |
On a summer's day | A |
What's so fine as being a boy Ha Ha | F |
With line and hook | G |
By a babbling brook | G |
The fisherman's sport we ply | H |
And list the song | I |
Of the feathered throng | I |
That flit in the branches nigh | H |
At last we strip | J |
For a quiet dip | J |
Ah that is the best of joy | E |
For this I say | A |
On a summer's day | A |
What's so fine as being a boy Ha Ha | F |
