May day is coming
When all will be gay,
‘Twil be fun and frolic
All the live, long day.
Flowers in the green woods
In the orchard, too,
Leaflets are growing
Every thing so new.
May, May, May
May, May, May,
May, May, May
Is that all that I can say.
May day is coming
May day is here,
The very happiest day
Of all the glad new year.
Call me early, Mother
Call me early, pray.
For we must crown the King,
The King, and Queen of May.
