"Autumn Leaves Are Falling"

           
    1. Autumn leaves are now falling;
Red and yellow and brown;
Autumn leaves are now falling,
See them fluttering down.

      Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Tra, la, la, la, la, la,
Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Tra, la, la, la, la, la.
   
   
2.
Autumn leaves from the tree tops
Flutter down to the ground,
When the wind blows his trumpet,
They go whirling around.
   
      Refrain    
    3. Autumn leaves they're tired,
In a soft huddled heap,
At the foot of the old tree,
Soon will fall fast asleep.
   
      Refrain
