Sweet Peony |
I want you to meet me at my houseboat |
Be sure and wear your little black rubber rain coat |
Write you a letter on thin lined note paper |
Hide it in the tree where the houseboat float |
Pulled a pully bone and make a fat wish |
Crawdad in the skillet, gonna catch a catfish |
Write you a letter on thin line note paper |
Hide it on the table in the catfish dish |
'Cause it’s sweet peony, it’s my dream |
It’s a sweet peony, is my dream |
Houseboat floating down the bayou |
Tried to catch a fish and now I think I’ll try you |
Write you a letter on thin line note paper |
In a tree, a dish, and in the bayou too |
And if our eyelids are gettin' heavy |
We’ll dock our houseboat on the muddy levy |
Read all the letters on the thin lined note paper |
Wad 'em up and eat 'em on the bayou |
'Cause it’s sweet peony it’s my dream |
It’s a sweet peony, it’s my dream |
I want you to meet me at my houseboat |
Be sure and wear your little black rubber rain coat |
Write you a letter on thin lined note paper |
Hide it in the tree where the houseboat float |
'Cause it’s sweet peony it’s my dream |
It’s a sweet peony, it’s my dream |
