lyrics

saturday i made my way
past apple trees, i walked
into the village through the gate.
a breeze was coming off the lake

sunday is a holy the day
in the village by the lake.
the butcher boy bent down to pray.
i saw saw a smile on his face.

....the smoke blowing , the wind rising;
boys fly kites and girls sit talking.
though the butcher boy is laughing
leaves are falling, winters coming.

monday morning i went walking.
the butcher boy saw me coming.
good day sir he said to to the me.
and by the school house we stood talking

....the smoke blowing , the wind rising;
boys fly kites and girls sit talking.
though the butcher boy is laughing
leaves are falling, winters coming.

tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday;
the butcher boy and i went riding.
the wind was blowing in his face,
and the butcher boy was smiling.

saturday i made my way
past apple trees, i walked
into the village through the gate.
a breeze was coming off the lake
