The Little House

Words by Josef Berger, melody by Nick Klonaris
Rise Up Singing chapter: Play, p.173
D - A - / / G D G D / G - A D

Theirs is a little house, theirs is
In a pear tree full of pearses
They're birds, you see, they live in a tree
Where they don't need ladders or stairses

They're happy and free from careses
They never have to run from bearses
And pears are free to birds you see
'Round the world or any other-whereses

Theirs is a little house, theirs is
With little bird beds and chairses
Did you ever hear of any house near
As nice a little house as theirs is?
