+**Chorus:**
+//I like to rise when the sun she rises,
+Early in the morning
+I like to hear them small birds singing,
+Merrily upon their laylum
+And hurrah for the life of a country boy,
+And to ramble in the new mown hay.//
+In spring we sow, at the harvest mow
+And that is how the seasons round they go
+But of all the times choose I may
+To go ramblin' in the new mown hay
+[Chorus]
+In winter when the sky is gray
+We hedge and ditch our time away,
+But in summer when the sun shines gay,
+We go ramblin' in the new mown hay.
+[Chorus]
+In autumn when the oak trees turn
+We gather all the wood that's fit to burn
+We cut and stash and stow away
+And go ramblin' in the new mown hay.
