Sittin' On A Log 1933

Lonesome am I
since the day you whispered Goodbye
No one to keep me company.
Each night I can be found
with my little old hound.
He's always whining,
I'm always pining.

Sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
Waiting for you.
Now and then a lonely owl says oooo oooo,
it seems to me that maybe he loves somebody too.
What I'd give if we could live
like the bees and flowers;
but instead I go to bed
only after hours and hours of
sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
waiting for you!

Sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
Waiting for you.
He sits up and lifts his paw,
tries to kiss my hands.
Guess that's the way he tries to say
that he understands.
Gee it's tough to be in love
and have no one near;
not a thing on earth to bring
just a cheerful little earful.
sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
waiting for you!

Oh me, oh gee,
I'm as lonesome as I can be.
Just now the postman passed me by.
Ain't got nobody but
just my funny old mutt.
He's so pathetic so sympathetic.

Sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
Waiting for you.
Now and then a lonely owl says oooo oooo,
it seems to me that maybe he loves somebody too.
What I'd give if we could live
like the bees and flowers;
but instead I go to bed
only after hours and hours of
sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
waiting for you!

Sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
Waiting for you.
He sits up and lifts his paw,
tries to kiss my hands.
Guess that's the way he tries to say
that he understands.
Gee it's tough to be in love
and have no one near;
not a thing on earth to bring
just a cheerful little earful.
sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog
feeling blue as blue.
Just sittin' on a log and a pettin' my dog,
waiting for you!
