Anyone remember Hee-Haw? Well, I certainly do, and every morning, given a nudge by my new "friend" Stella, I get to use one of their stellar offerings. Will put it to tune sometime later, (see my YouTube performances) but before that, here 'tis: (Guess I'll use Hee-haw's tune! It fits perfectly!)
Dog Walkin’ Mimcir Today!
We don’t have to run, don’t have to talk,
Don’t much matter which way we go
Neighbors all smile and give a sweet “hello!”
Mimosa Circle is a fine place to be…
And all our old neighbors are out workin’ you see,
It‘s not really a circle, it’s just what we got,
Either workin’ for the man, or workin’ on our lot!
There’s only one thing causin’ trouble for me.
Some of our drivers need a ticket or three
One of these days, someone’s gonna get hit;
Years of jail for the driver wouldn’t bother me a bit!
Speed bumps in our roads would be a good thing;
The more bumps the merrier unless you’re insane…
Every couple hundred feet would do it don't you know.
The speeders somewhere else would have to go!
Then Stella and Daddy could go for their walk,
We wouldn’t have to run, we wouldn’t have to talk,
Wouldn’t matter a bit which way we would go,
Neighbors all would smile and give a sweet “hello!”
Dog walkin', dog walkin', dog walkin', da-da-da-dah!
