"DOWN YONDER"

BABY,SWEET BABY

Baby, sweet Baby, please tell me that you will be mine,

Your kisses taste better than fresh strawberries straight from the vine.

I think you are cute as my little speckled pup,

Lapping at the milk my mother poured up.

From the moment I laid my eyes on you,

I loved you better than the speckled dog's Mom, Old Blue.

Me and that dog been hanging out together for years,

But I would still choose you, have no fear,

You bring tears to me like I'm in a fog,

I'm as proud of you as my prize winning hog.

So, darling, please tell me that you are mine,

Then I will put down my shotgun, and everything will be fine!
