While strolling along in the country
Reviewing the scenes new and old
I found an old fashion log cabin
So beautiful there to behold
A stranger was standing in silence
His eyes firmly fixed on the door
My heart ached in pity to see him
For these were the words that it bore
And the sign read an old cabin for sale
An old oaken bucket and well
Easy terms, just keep a log on the fire
And a light burning bright in the dell
Many years an old couple so patiently looked
For the boy whose last promise did fail
Now the old rocking chair will be rocking no more
There's an old log cabin for sale
VERSE
