Old Buttermilk Sky

Ole buttermilk sky
I'm keeping my eye peeled on you
What's the good word tonight?
Are you gonna be mellow tonight?

Ole buttermilk sky
Can't you see my little donkey and me?
We're as happy as a Christmas tree
Headin' for the one I love
He's gonna pop the question, that question
Do you, darling do you, do?

It'll be easy, so easy
If I can only bank on you
Ole buttermilk sky
I'm tellin' you why, so now you know
Keep it in mind tonight
Keep a-brushin' those clouds from sight

Ole buttermilk sky
Don't you fail me when I'm needin' you most
Hang a moon above my hitchin' post
Hitch me to the one I love

You can If you try, don't tell me no lie
Will you be mellow and bright tonight?
Ole buttermilk sky

He's gonna pop me the question, that question
Do you, darling do you, do?

It'll be easy, so very easy
If I can only bank on you
Ole buttermilk sky

I'm tellin' you why, now you know
Keep it in mind tonight
Keep a-brushin' those clouds from sight
Ole buttermilk sky

Please don't fail me when I'm needin' you most
Hang a moon above her hitchin' post
Hitch me to the one I love

You can, if you try, don't tell me no lie
Will you be mellow and bright tonight, ole buttermilk sky?
