Lonesome Polecat - Matt Mattox, Bill Lee

I’m a lonesome polecat

Lonesome, sad and blue

'cause I ain’t got no

Feminine polecat

Vowin' to be true

Can’t make no vow

To a heard of cows

I’m a mean old hound dog

Bayin' at the moon

'cause I ain’t got no

Lady friend hound dog

Here to hear my tune

A man can’t sleep

When he sleeps with sheep

I’m a little old hoot owl

Hootin' in the trees

'cause I ain’t got no

Little gal owl fowl

Here to shoot the breeze

Can’t shoot no breeze

With a bunch of trees

Why can’t I lose

These lonesome polecat blues?
