Performed by: Burl Ives and Cast (1963)
Featured In The Walt Disney film "Summer Magic"

Three creaky wooden stairs,
Those squeaky rockin' chairs,

The wellworn welcome mat,
The lattice vines, the happy times;

All I wanna do
When the day is through,

Is linger here
On the front porch with you.

From the wicker swing,
While the night birds sing;

We'll watch the fireflies sparkin',
Do some sparkin' too.

How the hours fly
As the moon drifts by,

How sweet the air
As we stare at the sky.

Oh, how I love to linger here like this
Hold your hand and steal a kiss or two,
On the front porch with you.

All I wanna do
When the day is through,

Is linger here
On the front porch with you.

From the wicker swing,
While the night birds sing;

We'll watch the fireflies sparkin',
Do some sparkin' too.

How the hours fly
As the moon drifts by,

How sweet the air
As we stare at the sky.

Oh, how I love to linger here like this
Hold your hand and steal a kiss or two,
On the front porch with you.
