Do the chil-dren love an out-door swing;

With their soft lit-tle hands they hold and cling

Like birds just out of a nest.

Try it which-ev-er way they please,

'Tis good as a green bough in a breeze;

They kneel in it with their chub-by knees,

To see if they like that best.

O-ver and o-ver they do it all,

Sit in it, stand in it, laugh and call;

And then if by an-y chance they fall—
