Chorus— We mowers, dal de ral day, We cut the lilies and—ha! ha! ha! hal hat ha! Hey, dey, dey, yes, hey, dey, dey, We cut the lilies and hay. The cheerful lark sings sweet and clear, The blackbird chirps away, And all is lively, sprightly here, Like merry, merry May. Cfw. We mowers, dal de ral iay We roll the swaths of green—hal ha! ha! ha! ha! ha) Hey, dey, dey, yes, hey, dey, dey, We roll the s-vaths of green hay. The maidens come in gladsome train, And skip along their way, Rejoiced to tread the grassy plain And toss the new-mown hay. Cho. The mowers, dal de ral day, They rake the lilies and—hal ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! Hey. dey, dey, yes, hey, dey, dey, They rake the lilies and hay. Make Hay While the Sun Shines.[1] , (Pat's Pick, page 16.) 3 Flat: There is an old maxim I wish you would read, And when you have read it its counsel would heed: "Make hay while the sun shines" I know it is old, And yet it is worth a whole bag full of gold.
