Arlo and Janis CABIN FEVER I must go out in the yard again, to the lonely chaise and the sky; And all I ask is a tall drink, and buffett to drink it by ; And the flame's lick, and the steaks on and white potatoes baking; And a great book of a far-off place, and a great sunset making. I must go out in the yard again, for the call of the eventide is a mild call and a clear call, that should not be denied; And all I ask is a sunny day, and the white clouds lying; And a green array and a vivid bloom and the jaybirds crying. I must go under the trees again, to the vagrant backyard life, to the dull way and the pale way, outside internal strife, and all I ask is a merry yarn, from a laughing mellow lover, and a quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long evening's over. - Apology to John Masefield
