Please Promise Me
Please promise me you'll take good care
To live each day as best you can
And sign on with a pinky swear
To be a tickled also-ran
Please promise me you'll always try
To live your dog days free and clear
And cross your heart and hope to die
To nourish love and weed out fear
Please promise me you'll keep your oath
To wake each day dead to the past
And make good on the vows you quoth
To be a good man till the last
To live each day as best you can
And sign on with a pinky swear
To be a tickled also-ran
Please promise me you'll always try
To live your dog days free and clear
And cross your heart and hope to die
To nourish love and weed out fear
Please promise me you'll keep your oath
To wake each day dead to the past
And make good on the vows you quoth
To be a good man till the last
