[Verse 1]
I'm going out to clean the pasture spring
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
And wait to watch the water clear, I may
I shan't be gone long
You come too

[Verse 2]
I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother
It's so young, it totters when she licks it with her tongue
I shan't be gone long
You come too
I shan't be gone long
You come too
