Lyrics:

Once I had a pretty girl
And pretty girl done gone
Once I had a pretty girl
To call my own

Dee de dee...

Once I had a shaggy dog
Shaggy dog done gone
Once I had a shaggy dog
To call my own

Dee de dee...

Sha la la...

Dee de dee...

Once I had a singing group
Singing group done gone
Now I got another group
Didn't take too long

Dee de dee...

Sha la la...

Dee de dee...
