Lyrics of Love and Laughter But de heat it meks ain't wa'min' up de gray clouds in de sky. Now an'den I des peep outside, den I hurries to de do', Lawd a mussy on my body, how I wish it wouldn't snow! I kin stan' de hottes' summah, I kin stan' de wettes' fall, I kin stan' de chilly springtime in de plough-land, but dat's all; Fu'de ve'y hottes' fiah nevah tells my skin a t'ing W'en de snow commence a-flyin', an' de win' begin to sing. Dey is plenty wood erroun'us, an' I chop an' tote it in, But de t'oughts dat I's a t'inkin' while I's wo'kin' is a sin. I kin keep f'om downright swahin' all de time I's on de go, But my hea't is the full o' cuss-wo'ds w'en I's trampin' thoo de snow. 17
