Did it without google. Then I hitched old dobbin to the rail.

The song is “Put on your old grey bonnet”.

Searching Google for “through the fields of clover”, “song lyrics include through the fields of clover” and “through the fields of clover song lyrics” brings up nothing on the first page. However, searching for “through the fields of clover, we’ll ride” produces the correct answer. You just had to have been familiar with the song to know this one.

Thanks for trying.

Sorry, but that song does NOT contain those lyrics. It does contain the phrase "through those fields of clover" but that is not the phrase you gave us.

Correction noted and I apologize! The version I pulled up was different - don't know now what source it was from. Would have added that one as a third choice.

Yes it does... Look at the first chorus, third line... it says, and "through the fields of clover,". It does not say "through those fields of clover"

New York: Jerome H. Remick & Co., 1909.

[Verse 1]
On the old farm house veranda
There sat Silas and Miranda,
Thinking of the days gone by.
Said he “Dearie don’t be weary, you were always bright and cheery,
But a tear, dear, dims your eye.”
Said she “they’re tears of gladness, Silas, they’re not tears of sadness,
It is fifty years today since we were wed.”
Then the old man’s dim eyes brighten’d,
And his stern old heart it lighten’d,
As he turn’d to her and said,

[Chorus]
“Put on your old grey bonnet with the blue ribbon on it,
While I hitch old Dobbin to the shay,
And through the fields of clover,
We’ll drive up to Dover on our golden Wedding day.”

[Verse 2]
It was in the same old bonnet
With the same blue ribbon on it,
In the old shay, by his side,
That he drove her up to Dover thro’ the same old fields of clover,
To become his happy bride.
The birds were sweetly singing
And the same old bells were ringing,
As they pass’d the quaint old church where they were wed.
And that night when stars were gleaming,
The old couple lay a-dreaming,
Dreaming of the words he said,

[Chorus]

Congrats, you won honorable mention in the anal retentive sweepstakes.

I'm sure it was necessary for you to post that. I just found the missing anus.
