Rising up with the sun
Oh how we are blessed
We’ll get it all done
Right after breakfast
A lonely spigot
Sweet water from rust
We’ll refill our jugs
Right after breakfast
We’ll hang our food high
Or else bury it we must
We’ll hide it from bears
Right after breakfast
We’ll commit our damp gear
To the morning sun’s trust
It’ll warm us up too
Right after breakfast
Our coffee rings true
In shining blue metal cups
We’ll drink it down slowly
Right after breakfast
Excuse me for a minute
There’s something I just…
…
…
Urgent business buried
Where the tide last blushed
And I’ll burn the paper trail
Right after breakfast
Rising up with the sun
Indeed we are blessed
We’ll get everything done
Right after breakfast
There’s so much to do
But we aren’t feeling rushed
Think I’ll paint this instead
Right after breakfast
