\'Tis Autumn Old Father Time checked So there'd be no doubt Called on the north Wind to come on out Then cupped his hands So proudly to shout La-de-da de-da-de-dam 'tis Autumn The trees say they're tired They bore too much fruit Charmed all the wayside There is no dispute Now shedding leaves They don't give a hoot La-de-da de-da-de-dam 'tis Autumn Then the birds got together To chirp about the weather After makin' their decision and birdie-like precision Turned about and made A bee-line to the south My~holding you close is really no crime Ask the birds the trees And Old Father Time It's just to help the mercury climb La-de-da de-da-de-da 'tis Autumn It's just to help the mercury climb La-de-da de-da-de-dam 'tis Autumn
