Lyrics of Love and Laughter

Seem to be dat time too precious,
An' de houahs too short entiah,
Fu' to sleep, w'en you could spen' 'em
Des a-noddin' by de fiah.


LOVE'S CASTLE.

KEY and bar, key and bar, Iron bolt and chain!
And what will you do when the King comes
To enter his domain?

Turn key and lift bar, 
Loose, oh, bolt and chain!
Open the door and let him in,
And then lock up again.

But, oh, heart, and woe, heart,
Why do you ache so sore?
Never a moment's peace have you 
Since Love hath passed the door.
