Lyrics 'Tis Autumn - Eydie Gormé

Old Father time checked
So there'd be no doubt
Called on the north wind
To come on out
Then cupped his hands
So proudly to shout
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
'Tis autumn

The trees say they're tired
They're borne too much fruit
They're charmed all the wayside
There's no dispute
Now shedding leaves
They don't give a hoot
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
'Tis autumn

Then the birds got together
To chirp about the weather
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
After making their decision
In birdie like precision
They turned around
And made a bee-line for the south

My holding you close
Really is no crime
Ask the birds, the trees
And old Father time
It's just to help
That mercury climb
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
'Tis autumn
La, de, da, de, da, de, da
'Tis autumn.
