The Fourth of July
by Aunt Fanny
Come, wake up, girls, come
wake up, boys!
The dawn is very near;
The day we celebrate with noise,
The jolly Fourth is here.
Come, get your crackers for
the fun,
Both big and little size;
We'll wake up echoes when
the sun
Begins to open his eyes.
It's pop and bang till shadows
fall,
Then, when the night comes
on,
The most exciting time of all
Is fireworks on the lawn.
Pa sets the rockets 'gainst a
post, They fizz and screech and
fly,
They fizz and screech and fly
Away up out of sight a'most,
Then crash against the sky!
