Johnny Built a House

Johnny built a house that was just so high
Johnny built a house with a window and a door
Johnny built a house that was pretty as a pie
But it didn't have walls and it didn't have a floor

"Hy," said Johnny, "What care I!
I can see the willow tree and I can see the sky
The sky is blue and the wind blows through
And the grass grows green where the floor might have been"

Johnny built a house that was just so high
Johnny built a house with a gate and a yard
The yard was immense 'cause it didn't have a fence
And he didn't build a fence cause he was just too tired

"Hy," said Johnny, "What care I!
The wild flowers grow just as blue as the sky
The red bird sits on my little corn bin
And I'll movе over when the bеars move in"
