Bone a Bone...

This is one of Muzzer's favorite carols, though as she 'splains it to me, it isn't really a Christmas song. A long, long time ago...in a land far, far away....Carolers went out much earlier...way before Christmas happened. In fact, not too long after Halloween.



So this is based on a traditional carol called "Soul Cake." With apologies to many people, perhaps most recently Peter, Paul and Mary. (my humans are a mixed marriage, she was a folkie and he was a Beach Boys fan!)

Gussie's version...for muzzer



Bone, a Bone, a meaty bone

Please, please Muzzer a meaty bone

Beef or Lamb or Deer, Oh Harry

Any of those would make me so merry



One For Teka, One for Gus, one for later just for us......



God Bless the doggies in this blog and the human beans also

And all the little puppies that round the table grow

The Kittens and Hamsterriers who blog also

All of us at DWB, and those we will soon know



Bone, a Bone, a meaty bone

Please dear muzzer a meaty Bone

Beef or Lamb or Deer, Oh Harry

Any of those would make us all merry



One for Tanner, one for Joe, one for helping Stella grow



Go down into the cellar and see what you can find

If the barrels are not empty we hope you will be kind

We hope you will be kind with your meat scraps and meat pies

For we'll come no more a soalin till this time next year.



Bone a Bone a meaty bone

Please good muzzer a meaty bone

Beef or Lambie, Deer...Oh Harry

Any good thing to make us all merry,



One for Snickers, one for Jake, one to bake into the cake



The streets are very dirty,

my feets are very sore.

I have a little pocket to put a treat-y in.

If you havent got a treat-y a half a treat will do.

If you havent got a half a treat then God bless you.



Bone a Bone a meaty Bone...

please, Please muzzer a meaty bone

Deer or beef or lamb, oh Harry

Any good thing to make us all merry,

One for Ruby, One for Blue, One more if you like your shoes.



Now to the lord sing praises all you within this place,

And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace..

This holy tide of christmas of beauty and of grace,

Oh tidings of comfort and joy. Comfort and joy, Oh Tidings of comfort and joy
