Country Life Lyrics

I like to rise when the sun she rises
Early in the morning
And I like to hear them small birds singing
Merrily upon their laylums
And hurrah for the life of a country boy
And to ramble in the new mowed hay

In spring we sow at the harvest mow
And that is how the seasons round they go
But of all the times if choose I may
I'd be rambling through the new mowed hay

For I like to rise when the sun she rises
Early in the morning
And I like to hear them small birds singing
Merrily upon their laylums
And hurrah for the life of a country boy
And to ramble in the new mowed hay

In winter when the sky is gray
We hedge and ditch our times away
But in summer when the sun shines gay
We go ramblin' through the new mowed hay

For I like to rise when the sun she rises
Early in the morning
And I like to hear them small birds singing
Merrily upon their laylums
And hurrah for the life of a country boy
And to ramble in the new mowed hay

Country Life Q&A

Who wrote Country Life's ?

Country Life was written by Traditional.

I wonder if these lyrics are in the public domain? Thanks.

(Sorry, this doesn’t really answer the question but) While I don’t think these lyrics themselves are in the public domain, it seems like they were inspired by an existing song which may be already public domain:
