The Swing
by Robert Louis Stevenson
1 How do you like to go up in a swing,
2 Up in the air so blue?
3 Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
4 Ever a child can do!
5 Up in the air and over the wall,
6 Till I can see so wide,
7 Rivers and trees and cattle and all
8 Over the countryside—
9 Till I look down on the garden green,
10 Down on the roof so brown—
11 Up in the air I go flying again,
12 Up in the air and down!
