about

a song for harmonium,clapping, and simple rhythm tracks.

lyrics

a shadow of clouds cross the great plane
and smoke from the house rose into
the blue sky
the sunny sky
and the wind blew
and the wind blew

grass on the hill shivered and shook
a breeze from the plane made it chill
down by the lake,
and on little waves
a boy in a boat
a boy in a boat

a girl in a hat came out of the house
she walked to the gate
and she called out
"hey little boy in a boat
it's supper time

you'd better get home!

a shadow of clouds cross the great plane
and smoke from the house rose into
the blue sky
the sunny sky
and the wind blew
and the wind blew
