Where the road runs down by the butternut grove To old bill skinners stream Do tell at the noonday bell Its time for a summertime dream In a lunch pail town in a one horse way You can live like a king and queen Lets steal away in the noonday sun Its time for a summertime dream Birds in all creation will be twitterin in the trees And down belows a pond I know You can swim in it if you please And if you come round when the mill shuts down You can see what chivalry means Lets steal away in the noonday sun Its time for a summertime dream (Instrumental: ) On a trip on down to wonderland In love among the flowers Where time gets lost with no straw boss Tallyin up the hours Where the road runs down by the butternut grove To old bill skinners stream Do tell at the noonday bell Its time for a summertime dream (Instrumental, same as above) Birds in all creation will be twitterin in the trees And down belows a pond I know You can swim in it if you please And if you come round when the mill shuts down You can see what chivalry means Lets steal away in the noonday sun Its time for a summertime dream (Repeat instrumental 2x to end on )
