Little drum song

I beat the drum roll loudly so

It shakes you up from head to toe!

Reminds me of my darling dear;

"Blue-gray,

blue,

blue-gray,

blue"

shine his eyes so clear.

And when I recall how they shine so bright,

All by itself the drum becomes light,

The wild drum tone rings clear to the skies:

"Blue-gray,

blue,

blue-gray,

blue"

my beloved's eyes.
