Fall Baby
Mark Lenover
Let's make a home in autumn
Let's make a house from sticks
Let's build a house of straw
and let's build a house of brick
If wild dogs come "˜round
to blow these houses down,
we'll throw our nets around them
and then we'll make a house of pelts and bone
Rows of tidy beds under leaves
Save a quiet place for me
Fall baby
Let's make our home in autumn
away from winter's tricks
Let's make ourselves an oven
Let's build a house for pigs
Don't let the wolves have any
Don't spare them any strength
at least not "˜till January
if there are any left by then
Rows of tidy beds under leaves
Save a quiet place for me
Fall baby
