Kishore Kumar Hits — Christine Lavin - Maple Syrup Time lyrics

Artist: Christine Lavin

album: One Meat Ball

First you get the buckets ready, clean the pans and gather firewood
Late in the winter, it's maple syrup time
You need warm and sunny days but still a cold and freezing nighttime
For just a few weeks, maple syrup time
We boil and boil and boil and boil it all day long
Till ninety sev'n percent of water evaporates just like this song
And when what is left is syrupy don't leave it too long
Watch out for burning! Maple syrup time
I know it's not the quickest system but each year I can't resist it
Get out the buckets, and tap the trees in time
Making it is half the fun, and satisfaction when it's done
Keep up the fire! Maple syrup time
My grandpa says perhaps it's just a waste of time
Ah! but no more than this attempt to make a happy little rhyme
So pat your feet or swing your tail, but keep in good time
Keep up the fire! Maple syrup time
I'll send this song around the world with love to ev'ry boy and girl
Hoping they don't mind a little advice in rhyme
As in life or revolution, rarely is there a quick solution
Anything worthwhile takes a little time
We boil and boil and boil and boil it all day long
When what is left is syrupy, don't leave it on the flame too long
But seize the minute, build a new world, sing an old song
Keep up the fire! Maple syrup time
