Vacation Days are Here

Lyrics

(J.C. Johnson, publ. 1918)

Ho ho, vacation days are here,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
We welcome them with right good cheer,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
In wisdom’s halls we love to be,
But yet ’tis pleasant to be free.
Ho ho, vacation days are here,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!

Ho ho, the hill, the wood, the dale,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
The lake on which we used to sail,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
We greet thee all with right good cheer,
In thought unchanged again we’re here.
Ho ho, the hill, the wood, the dale,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!

Ho ho, the hours will quickly fly,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
And soon vacation time be by,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
Ah then, we’ll all, in glad refrain,
Sing welcome to our school again,
Ho ho, the hours will quickly fly,
Tra la, tra la, tra la!
