LITTLE BUTCH
Music and Lyrics: Hal Owen

There’s a brand new little fellow
With a sparkle in his eye
And smile on his lips divine

Got a mighty funny nose
But his cheek is like a rose
And he’s mine, all mine

Little Butch they say you’re such a funny little guy
I think they’ve overlooked the merry twinkle in your eye
Your smile that tells the world there’s still a sun up in the sky
Way up high
Way up high

Little Butch they’ve never walked the floor with you at night
Or sang of love filled stars above grew weary in their flight
Or said a prayer while trusting little arms with all their might
Held me tight
Held me tight

I can picture the scene very clearly
The long night is over or nearly
It’s a boy the nurse announces
Seven pounds, seven ounces

Little Butch the thrill of it forever will ever remain
Through misty eyes I looked at you are all caught in the rain
A bluebird on a hilltop sang a song of loves delight
That’s the story Little Butch good night
That’s the story Little Butch good night
