Sounding good :D I like the take on the "cease the day" theme and all the rural "to do" list things....nice ideas.

Thanks for sharing.

Hope I've got this URL right.
I think I sang an extra chorus on this one. Got carried away there for a minute. Sorry about that. Wilhelmina

Chorus:
You gotta make hay while the sun shines,
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,"
Make hay while the sun shines,
And it's shining today.

You gotta dig up the spuds while the skins are thin,
Pick all the plums before the worms get in,
You gotta pull in your line when you feel the fish bite,
Tell someone you love her and tell her tonight.

Chorus:
You gotta make hay while the sun shines,
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,"
Make hay while the sun shines,
And it's shining today.

You gotta gather the eggs before the sun has set,
Bring in the laundry before it gets wet,
Tell someone 'I love you", say the words "Be mine."
Love is too fine to let it die on the vine.

Chorus 2:
You gotta make love while the sun shines,
Fill up the hay mow to the brim.
A barn full of love will sustain you,
When the weather turns grim.

Chorus 1:
You gotta make hay while the sun shines,
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,"
Make hay while the sun shines,
And it's shining today.

It's time to make hay!]]> Sunday Songwriters Group wilhelmina https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/y9w8-make-hay/#post-41183
