It's April and the grass is green,
Trees are blooming everywhere,
Farmers plowing up the earth,
It's good to know that Spring has come,
A dreamer dreams, and then awakes
The sun is out and birds are seen,
Signs that Spring is surely here,
And things seem good to eye and ear.
There is humming in the air
And all the world seems fine and right
In its dress of pink and white.
Planting, seeding, all they're worth,
Busy working for their bread
Knowing what the Good Bood said.
That Winter's gone and bright's the sun.
No snow, no sleet, no hail or ice,
Just flowers and birds and grass -- how nice!
With chills and fever as he quakes.
Last night it snowed again so white
My dream was spoiled -- it just ain't right!
