Two songs

Song Cycle by Elizabeth L. Skinner

2. The weather
 (Sung text)

Language: English 
Whatever the weather may be," says he,
«Whatever the weather may be,
It's the songs ye sing and the smiles ye wear,
That's making the sun shine everywhere;
An' the world of gloom is a world of glee,
With the bird in the bush an' the bird in the tree,
Whatever the weather may be," says he,
"Whatever the weather may be."

Text Authorship:

  • by James Withcomb Riley (1849 - 1916), "The weather"
