My Water Bowl...

I have a little water bowl, it sits there on the sink
It's full of water, cold and fresh, in case I need a drink

But I prefer the running sort, from out the tap, you know
my Dad he turns it on for me, when ‘ere I ask him, so

The other morn, at 3am, I felt a thirst come on
but Dad was fast asleep, he could not be relied upon

I tried a yowl and then another, then a scratch or two
this did not bring his normal yell, and so ‘twas then I knew

My Dad was really fast asleep, not faking it, and so
I opened up the bathroom door and used my bowl...hey ho...
