THE MULBERRY TREE

It's many's the scenes which is dear to my mind

As I think of my childhood so long left behind;

The home of my birth, with it's old puncheon-floor,

And the bright morning-glories that growed round the door;

The warped clab-board roof whare the rain it run off

Into streams of sweet dreams as I laid in the loft,

Countin' all of the joys that was dearest to me,
