I'm a lonesome polecat

Lonesome sad and blue

‘Cause I ain't got no feminine polecat

Vowing to be true.



I'm a mean old houndog

Baying at the moon

‘Cause I ain't got no lady friend houndog

Here to hear my tune.



Ooh ooh

Can't make no vows -- 

To a herd of cows.



I'm a lonesome polecat

Lonesome sad and blue

‘Cause I ain't got no feminine polecat

Vowing to be true.



Ooh ooh 

Can't shoot no breeze -- 

To a bunch of trees.



(fade)

You make me so lonely

You make me so lonely
