A progressive Bluegrass song with great lyrics. When I hear it I can't picture a time when this song didn't exist.

Story behind the song
Chris sang this song to me over the phone one day while he was living in Milwaulkee. I saved the voice mail and still have it. It's a cute little song that gets in and out before you can figure it out or get bored.

possum say 'fox, I'd be doin' well, if I had your tail, cause mine's as cold as-"
Morning,
Morning comes nearly every day,
Morning,
Morning comes and she usually comes quite early in the *WHOO*
Chickadees chirpin to be fed,
on a feast of fleas from the Farmers bed,
Farmer's gone t' town for a witches spell,
for to cure him o' the fleas 'cause he itches like-
Morning...
