Den Building

lyrics

I'm a den-building boy
and I buit dens all through summer
all my friends
knew my dens
but they could not build like me

Now and then, I seem coy
like an actor in a drama
Look again, ladyfriend:
I'm just sizing up a tree

But tell me to and I'll stop building,
I'll stop building an hour or three

I'm a grave-digging guy
and I dig graves when they're needed
Every one,
When they're done
fits the coffin to a "T"

But ask me to, and I'll stop digging,
I'll stop diggin , if you ask me

Now that I'm old Im' astounded
That both of us waited so long
Now that I'm old I'm confounded
What did I build all along?

I'm a den-building boy
Always was and always will be
If you stay,
anyway
will you build a den with me?

So ask me to, and I'll stop building
I'll stop building my dens for you

For you.
