When Autumn shakes the rambo-tree-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard!-- <br />The bird sings low as the bumble-bee-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard!-- <br />The poor shote-pig he says, says he: <br />'When Autumn shakes the rambo-tree <br />There's enough for you and enough for me.'-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard. <br /> <br />_For just two truant lads like we_, <br />_When Autumn shakes the rambo-tree_ <br />_There's enough for you and enough for me_-- <br />_It's a long, sweet way across the orchard_. <br /> <br />When Autumn shakes the rambo-tree-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard!-- <br />The mole digs out to peep and see-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard!-- <br />The dusk sags down, and the moon swings free, <br />There's a far, lorn call, 'Pig-_gee_! 'Pig-_gee_!' <br />And two boys--glad enough for three.-- <br />It's a long, sweet way across the orchard. <br /> <br />_For just two truant lads like we_, <br />_When Autumn shakes the rambo-tree_ <br />_There's enough for you and enough for me_-- <br />_It's a long, sweet way across the orchard_.<br /><br />James Whitcomb Riley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-rambo-tree/
