The Dancing Family.

Topics: classic

Pray let me introduce you to     This little dancing family;     For morning, afternoon, and night     They danced away so happily.     They twirled round about,     They turned their toes out;     The people wondered what the noise     Could all be about.     They danced from early morning,     Till very late at night;     Both in-doors and out-of-doors,     With very great delight.     And every sort of dance they knew,     From every country far away;     And so it was no wonder that     They should keep dancing all the day.     So dancing--dancing--dancing,     In sunshine or in rain;     And when they all left off,     Why then--they all began again.
