Hank Snow - The Owl And I Lyrics

Recorded by Hank Snow



Who-who-who (Who-who-who)

Who-who-who-who (Who-who-who-who)



A boy and girl were kissing beneath a linden tree

A lonely owl was watching a little jealously

It seemed that he was saying

I want my sweetheart too

But she's flown off with someone

I often wonder who

Who-who-who (Who-who-who-who)



The summer moon grew brighter, the owl looked down at me

He say that I was lonely, alone the same as he

He thought of his beloved

And as I thought of you

He asked the same old question

That I am asking you



The owl and I were blinking and fighting back the tears

We sat all night together like friends of many years

We both are hoping, someday

To find somebody new

Someone who'll make us happy

Another love, but who

Who-who-who (Who-who-who)

Who-who-who-who (Who-who-who-who)
