Would you hug my back to keep me warm, While the night goes creeping? As if there where a ghostly form, Through our window peepin'. If sweat comes trickling down my back, And I can't sleep for trying, Would you hold me close, and whisper sweet, And tell me I'm not dying. Would you hug my back to keep me warm? Oh, the night's so balmy, As if there were a dreadful storm, And I'm the one 'needs calming. Will you tell me worries they are few? Will you say you love me only? And I am good enough for you, And you'll not leave me lonley. Would you hug my back to keep you warm, Though you're busy dreaming? While the cockees creep and the mossies swarm, Through the night come teaming. Will you let me scratch, will you let me whinge? Will you listen to me yawning? Could you kick my arse, and push me out, And say "Dear boy, ahh, it's morning".
