[Caleb]
Oh the barnyard is busy
In a regular tizzy
And the obvious reason is
Because of the season
Ma Nature's lyrical
With her yearly miracle
Spring, Spring, Spring
[Benjamin]
All the hen-folk are hatchin'
While their men-folk are scratchin'
To ensure the survival of
Each brand new arrival
[Dorcas]
Each nest is twitterin'
They're all baby-sitterin'
Spring, Spring, Spring
[Frank]
It's a beehive of buddin' son and daughter life
Every family has plans in view
Even down in the brook the underwater life
Is forever blowin' bubbles too
[Sarah]
Every male little mallard
Honks a heart-rending ballad
From the stream where he sloshes
In his web-foot galoshes
[Frank]
He gurgles brimmingly
"We'll get along swimmingly"
[Both]
Spring, Spring, Spring
[Liza]
Every field wears a bonnet
With some spring daisies on it
Even birds of a feather
Show their clothes off together
[Ephraim]
Suns gettin' shinery
To spotlight the finery
[Liza]
Spring, Spring, Spring
[Gideon]
From his eyrie, the eagle with his eagle eye
Gazes down across his eagle beak
And a fixin' his lady with his legal eye
Screams "Suppose we set the date this week"
[Caleb & Ruth with Daniel & Martha]
Yes siree spring disposes
That it's all one supposes
It's a real bed of roses
Waggin' tails, rubbin' noses
[All Brothers and Brides except Ephraim]
Each day is mother's day
The next is some other's day
When all is King
