Equinoxial - Pete Seeger
Equinoxial swore by the green leaves on the tree
That he could do more work in a day
Than Pheobe could in three three
He could do more work in a day
Than Pheobe could in three

If that be true little Pheobe said
Then this you must allow
You come do the work in the house
And I'll go follow the plow plow
You come do the work in the house
And I'll go follow the plow

Its you must feed the little pig
That stands in yonder sty
You must milk the brindle cow for fear
She could go dry dry
You must milk the brindle cow for fear
She could go dry

And you must churn the crock of cream
That I left in the frame
And you must watch the fat in the pot
Or it'll all go into flame flame
And you must watch the fat in the pot
Or it'll all go into flame

And you must wind the hank of yarn
That I spun yesterday
And you must watch the little hen
Or so she'd run away away
And you must watch the speckled hen for fear
She'd run astray

Little Pheobe took the whip
And went to follow the plow
And Equinoxial took the pale
And went to milk the cow cow
Equinoxial took the pale
And went to milk the cow

Well the brindle cow she turned around
And wrinkled up her nose
She give him a dip upon the lip
And the blood run to his toes toes
She give him a dip upon the lip
And the blood run to his toes

He went to churn the crock of cream
That she left in the frame
And he forgot the fat in the pot
And it all went into flame
He forgot the fat in the pot
And it all went into flame

He went to wind the hank of yarn
That she spun yesterday

He forgot the speckled hen
So she run astray stray
He forgot the speckled hen
So she run astray

He looked to the East he looked to the West
He saw the setting sun

He swore to himself it had been a long day
And Pheobe hadn't come come
He swore to himself it had been a long day
Pheobe hadn't come

Presently little
Pheobe came and saw him lookin' sad
She clapped her hands upon her side
And swore that she was glad glad
She clapped her hands upon her side
And swore that she was glad

So Equinoxial swore by all the stars in heaven
That she could do more work in a day
Than he could do in seven seven
She could do more work in a day
Than he could do in seven
