The Cricket Song

Rich O’ Toole, The Cricket Song

The air last night was warm and moist.
In a dream I thought I heard your voice.
Well I went outside I started to sing,
the crickets were doing the very same thing.
…
The crickets sing loud, but they sing good,
the crickets sing like I wish I could.
I sing good but the crickets sing best,
me and the crickets put the night to rest.

I used to lie in the bunkhouse back at the ranch and they would lull my to sleep. V
