Vest uv red wher' the wings come down,

Primpin' his feathers 'n winkin' at me,

Mincin' er-round so he kin see;

'At's a game what two can play;

'Course he finds me, 'nen he tries

Ter make believe he's awful wise.

All uv a suddin he sez again,

"Goin' ter rain, goin' ter rain!"

Climbed way up ter his nest one day,
