Lyrics
I want you to meet me at my houseboat Be sure and wear your little black rubber rain coat Write you a letter on thin lined note paper Hide it in the tree where the houseboat float Pulled a pully bone and make a fat wish Crawdad in the skillet, gonna catch a catfish Write you a letter on thin line note paper Hide it on the table in the catfish dish 'Cause it's sweet peony, it's my dream It's a sweet peony, it's my dream Houseboat floatin' down the bayou Tried to catch a fish and now I think I'll try you Write you a letter on thin line note paper In a tree, a dish and in the bayou, too And if our eyelids are gettin' heavy We'll dock our houseboat on the muddy levee Read all the letters on the thin lined note paper Wad 'em up and eat 'em on the bayou 'Cause it's sweet peony, it's my dream It's a sweet peony, it's my dream I want you to meet me at my houseboat Be sure and wear your little black rubber rain coat Write you a letter on thin lined note paper Hide it in the tree where the houseboat float 'Cause it's sweet peony, it's my dream It's a sweet peony, it's my dream
