Autumn To May (Peter Paul & Mary) cover
Autumn To May is a song I think was written by Peter Yarrow and Paul Stookey of the band, Peter Paul and Mary. Dave Van Ronk recorded an excellent but much different version around the same time in the early 1960`s which makes me think it might be a traditional folk song. I have trouble getting a decent recording when I strum the guitar so I stuffed the guitar full of towels to make it less loud. It sounds muffled and very clunky. I have no idea the problem is. I`ve tried everything I can think of. Anyways this is one of the first songs I learned to play and it`s still one of my favorites.
AUTUMN TO MAY lyrics
Oh once I had a little dog, his color it was brown
I taught him for to whistle, to sing and dance and run
His legs they were fourteen yards long, his ears so very wide
Around the world in half a day, upon him I could ride.
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
Oh once I had a little frog, he wore a vest of red
He'd lean upon his silver cane, a top hat on his head
He'd speak of far off places, of things to see and do,
Of all the Kings and Queens he'd met while sailing in a shoe.
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
Oh once I had a flock of sheep, they grazed upon a feather
I'd keep them in a music box from wind or rainy weather
And every day the sun would shine, they'd fly all through the town
To bring me back some golden rings, candy by the pound.
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
Oh once I had a downey swan, she was so very frail
She sat upon an oyster shell and hatched me out a snail
The snail had changed into a bird, the bird to butterfly
And he who tells a bigger tale would have to tell a lie.
Sing Tarry-O Day, Sing, Autumn to May.
