Would you like to come with me?

There are things that we could see –

And after go back for some tea

Or back outside and climb a tree.

But if you’d rather be right back

We could stroll along the railroad track

And if we go too far, backtrack

Just go back to the house and yak.

I hear the Reds’ new Quarterback

Can throw a ball and not hold back

Or go back home and get a snack

Or camp in a makeshift bivouac.

And if you’re tired, we’ll go back slow

No longer far or near to go

But be careful as you back in, though

The driveway’s slippery with snow.

And as you settle down in bed

With flashbacks trailing through your head

Remember we decided

Tomorrow, we’ll get out the sled!
