Winter Bird / When Winter Comes

Must fix the fence by the acre plot

Two young foxes have been nosing around

The lambs and the chickens won't feel safe until it's done

I must dig a drain by the carrot patch

The whole crop spoils if it gets too damp

And where will we be with an empty store

When winter comes?

When winter comes

And food is scarce

We'll warn our toes

To stay indoors

When summer's gone

We'll fly away

And find the sun

When winter comes

I must find the time to plant some trees

In the meadow where the river flows

In time to come they'll make good shade for some poor soul

When winter comes

And food is scarce

We'll warn our toes

To stay indoors

When summer's gone

We're gonna fly away

And find the sun

When winter comes

Must fix the fence by the acre plot

Two young foxes have been nosing around

And the lambs and the chickens won't feel safe until it's done

When winter comes

And food is scarce

We'll warn our toes

To stay indoors

When summer's gone

We're gonna fly away

And find the sun

When winter comes

And find the sun

When winter comes
