When the frost is on the
punkin and the fodder's in the shock, And you hear the kyouck and gobble of the struttin' turkey-cock And the clackin' of the guineys, and the cluckin' of the hens, And the rooster's hallylooyer as he tiptoes on the fence; O, it's then's the times a feller is a-feelin' at his best, With the risin' sun to greet him from a night of peaceful rest, As he leaves the house, bareheaded, and goes out to feed the stock, When the frost is on the
punkin and the fodder's in the shock.

punkin and the fodder's in the shock.
