Original Song - Hey Diddle Diddle by Jim Lundy

Here's another original song. Please check out my other videos by selecting "More from: wickedmessenger1" below. Lyrics:

Hey Diddle Diddle

She said, You're going to miss me when I go
I said, Tell me something I don't know.
As she boarded the plane that afternoon,
But there was something she didn't say
As she made her getaway,
Sometimes the dish runs away with the spoon.

At first her letters came
Her picture in a frame
Saying shed be coming home real soon
But there was a break in the routine
They came few and far between
Sometimes the dish runs away with the spoon.

When you're sitting on this side
Of the ocean deep and wide
And your love has left you howling at the moon,
You fill your time with drinking
And it leaves you somber thinking
Sometimes the dish runs away with the spoon.

Bridge:
Hey diddle diddle,
the cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
But when the cats away
The fiddle still plays
Sometimes the dish runs away with the spoon.


Now loneliness is a crime
So to help me pass the time
I met a pretty girl, her name is June,
Were together every day
Its like they always say
Sometimes the dish runs away with the spoon.

Clever song.. I think you could sell it

[chuxtrux]

nicely crafted and performed. i like the line "you fill your time with drinking and it leaves you somber thinking" almost wanted to hear though "it leaves you sober thinking". continue the craft.
