What Do We Do on a Dew-Dew-Dewy Day?
Bad days, I just adore 'em
Bad days, I'm crazy for 'em
When there's mist around, dew upon the ground
I like blue, funny weather
Don't like too sunny weather
With sweet, sweety mine[?]
I can't enjoy my time
All we do is go out walking
When the sun shines bright and gay
But what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
All we do is lots of talking
On a moonlit night in May
But what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
Do we love?
Do we play?
Do we hug, just a little bit
Kiss, just a little bit
Boy, I'll say!
When the parlor's warm and cozy
And the old folks are away
Then, what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
If it's raining when I'm startled
And he says I'll have to stay
Then, what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
That's when I lose my umbrella
And for lightning, how I pray
Then, what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
Back when 'ma and his 'pa
Both said let's not go out tonight
I turn grey
Caught my baby 'sis on one chair
On the other I must say
Then, what do we do – what do we do
On a dew – dew – dewy day?
