Lonesome Polecat
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm a lonesome polecat
Lonesome, sad and blue
'cause I ain't got no
Feminine polecat
Vowin' to be true.
Can't make no vow
To a heard of cows.
I'm a mean old hound dog
Bayin' at the moon
'cause I ain't got no
Lady friend hound dog
Here to hear my tune.
Oo-oo-Oo-oo-Oo-oo-Oo-oo
A man can't sleep
When he sleeps with sheep.
I'm a little old hoot owl
Hootin' in the trees
'cause I ain't got no
Little gal owl fowl
Here to shoot the breeze
Oo-oo-Oo-oo-Oo-oo-Oo-oo
Can't shoot no breeze
With a bunch of trees.
Why can't I lose
These lonesome polecat blues?
