James Whitcomb Riley - The Boy Lives On Our FarmJames Whitcomb Riley - The Boy Lives On Our Farm
Work rating: Low


The boy lives on our Farm, he`s not   Afeard o` horses none! An` he can make `em lope, er trot,   Er rack, er pace, er run. Sometimes he drives two horses, when   He comes to town an` brings A wagon-full o` `taters nen,   An` roastin`-ears an` things. Two horses is "a team," he says,   An` when you drive er hitch, The right-un`s a "near-horse," I guess   Er "off"--I don`t know which-- The Boy lives on our Farm, he told   Me, too, `at he can see, By lookin` at their teeth, how old   A horse is, to a T! I`d be the gladdest boy alive   Ef I knowed much as that, An` could stand up like him an` drive,   An` ist push back my hat, Like he comes skallyhootin` through   Our alley, with one arm A-wavin` Fare-ye-well! to you--   The Boy lives on our Farm!
