American Old Time Song Lyrics: 17 Wait Till The Bull Dog Dies, Jennie
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 17
Wait Till the Bull-Dog Dies, Jennie.
Tune- "Wait Till the Clouds Roll By."
Won't you come over to-night, Freddy?
I am so lonely now;
It has been very near a mouth, Freddy,
And I hear but the dog's bow, wow.
He is so gentle and passive,
If he hears but the wind, then he cries;
But I answered soft and sweetly,
Wait till the bull dog dies.
Chorus.
Wait till the bull dog dies, Jennie,
Wait till he'll close his eyes;
Then I'll come around and see you,
But not till the bull dog dies.
I remember well when we parted,
Twas on a very dark night,
How he tackled my pants and suspenders,
Oh! heavens didn't he hold on tight.
Then your parents got on to the racket,
And your dad blackened both my eyes;
So you will have to excuse me,
I'll wait till the bull dog dies.
Chorus.
Wait till the bull dog dies, Jennie,
Wait till he'll close his eyes;
My pants are a wreck, and his teeth had effect,
Wait till the bow-wow dies.
