Explore "Songs for Parents: The Drum" by John Chipman Farrar on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The drum's a very quiet fellow When he's left alone; But oh, how he does roar and bellow, Rattle, snap and groan, Clatter, spatter, dash and patter, Rumble, shriek and moan Whene'er I take my sticks in hand And beat him soundly for the band.
