"I" said the little leatherwing bat
"I'll tell you the reason that
The reason that I fly the night
Because I lost my heart's delight"
[Chorus]
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Hi lee-lee, little-I little-o
"I" said the robin as he flew
"When I was a young man, I chose too
If one wouldn't love me, the other one would
Don't you think my notion's good"
"I" said the red-bird sitting on a fence
"Once I loved a handsome wench
She got saucy and from me fled
Ever since, my head's been red"
"Hoot" said the owl with a head so white
"A lonesome day and a lonesome night
Thought I heard some pretty girl say
She'd court all night and sleep all day"
"I'll tell you the reason that
The reason that I fly the night
Because I lost my heart's delight"
[Chorus]
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Howdy-dowdy, diddle-um-day
Hi lee-lee, little-I little-o
"I" said the robin as he flew
"When I was a young man, I chose too
If one wouldn't love me, the other one would
Don't you think my notion's good"
"I" said the red-bird sitting on a fence
"Once I loved a handsome wench
She got saucy and from me fled
Ever since, my head's been red"
"Hoot" said the owl with a head so white
"A lonesome day and a lonesome night
Thought I heard some pretty girl say
She'd court all night and sleep all day"
