| I’m keepin' my eye peeled on you
|
| What’s the good word tonight?
|
| Are you gonna be mellow tonight?
|
| Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky)
|
| Can’t you see my little doggie and me We’re as happy as a christmas tree
|
| Headin' for the one I love (the one I love)
|
| I’m gonna pop her the question, that question
|
| Do you Darlin', do ya do?
|
| It’ll be easy, so easy
|
| If I can only bank on you
|
| Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky)
|
| I’m tellin' you why, now you know
|
| Keep it in mind tonight
|
| Keep brushin' those clouds from sight
|
| Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky)
|
| Don’t fail me when I’m needin' you most
|
| Hang a moon above her hitching post
|
| Hitch me to the one I love
|
| (buttermilk sky)
