By a Bubbling Brook by Ken e Hall Lyrics

This dismal scene inspires me none
Me thinks to sleep for forty winks
An’ let the brook babble on
I will close my eyes and
Try to unravel the babble of
A babbling brook
Maybe it’s a soothing song
Maybe I’m wrong, but listen
Oh my yes it is indeed it is
With its dribble and drabble
An’ swirly gurgles
Gurgling and swirling along
The ducks are quacking
Their peace the frogs are lacking
An’ by golly I’m singing a babbling song
Well now me thinks
I’ll have that forty winks
