Lyrics
Rise Little One
Copyright 2003 Cynthia Post, ?Little Elsie? CD: The Elsewhere Band
Chorus
Rise little one. Rise, rise, rise
Mama wants to show you the new world outside
Rise little one. Rise, rise, rise
Since early morning it?s been snowing
Verse
Your papa?s snoring like it?s the dead of the night
If he?d open his eyes, he?d see the morning light
And if you don?t take after him then I don?t know who
He?s a lazy boy this morning, just like you
Chorus
Verse
There?s a squirrel hiding inside a tree
There?s a bluejay looking through the window at me
The pups are ready to go out and play
Isn?t anybody gonna get up today
Chorus
Verse
We could build a snowman and use papa?s hat
We could build a castle if you?d rather do that
I?ll chase you through the snow, hug you and kiss you
Oo, I wish that you?d awake, I?m starting to miss you
Chorus
