An' dey 's time to tinker 'roun'.

Oh, you 'ten's lak you so anxious

Evah time it so't o' stops.

W'en hit goes on, den you reckon

Dat de wet 'll he'p de crops.

But hit ain't de crops you 's aftah;

You knows w'en de rain comes down

Dat's hit's too wet out fu' wo'kin',

An' dey 's time to tinker roun'.

Oh, dey 's fun inside de co'n-crib.
