Where the Bee Sucks Thomas Arne Where the bee sucks, there lurk I In a cowslip's bell I lie There I couch when owls do cry When owls do cry, when owls do cry. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough Under the blossom that hangs on the bough. On a bat's back do I fly, do I fly On a bat's back do I fly After sunset, merrily, merrily After sunset, merrily. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
