In Just-
spring     when the world is mud-
luscious the little
lame balloonman

whistles   far   and wee

and eddieandbill come
running from marbles and
piracies and it's
spring

when the world is puddle-wonderful

the queer
old balloonman whistles
far   and   wee
and bettyanddisbel come dancing

from hop-scotch and jump-rope and

it's
spring
and
    the
        
        goat-footed 

balloonMan   whistles
far
and
wee
home, james
