Must fix the fence by the acre plot Two young foxes have been nosing around The lambs and the chickens wont feel safe Until its 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 stove When winter comes        When winter comes And food is scarce We'll warn our toes To stay indoors When summers 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 summers gone We'll fly away And find the sun When winter comes             Must fix the fence by the acre plot Two young foxes have been nosing around The lambs and the chickens wont feel safe Until its done         When winter comes And food is scarce We'll warn our toes To stay indoors When summers gone We'll fly away And find the sun When winter comes      And find the sun When winter comes
