Jump On That Bump

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



Don't let a bump on a path you pave,
Chase you away.
No.
Don't let a bump on a path that you pave...
Just chase you away.
No, don't let a bump on a path you pave,
Make you run away.
Look at that bump jump on it and move.
To leave it lay where it stays!
