Grasshopper Green is a comical chap;
He Hves on the best of fare.
Bright Httle trousers, jacket, and cap —
These are his summer wear.
Out in the meadow he loves to go,
Playing away in the sun;
It’s hopperty, skipperty, high and low —
Summer’s the time for fun.
Grasshopper Green has a dozen wee boys,
And, soon as their legs grow strong.
Each of them joins in his frolicsome joys,
Singing his merry song.
Under the hedge in a happy row,
Soon as the day has begun,
It’s hopperty, skipperty, high and low —
Summer’s the time for fun.
Grasshopper Green has a quaint little house.
It’s under the hedge so gay.
Grandmother Spider, as still as a mouse,
Watches him over the way.
Gladly he’s calling the children, I know,
Out in the beautiful sun;
It’s hopperty, skipperty, high and low —
Summer’s the time for fun.
