OLE BUTTERMILK SKY Kay Kyser words and music by Hoagy Carmichael 
(do do-do-do, do do-do do) (do do-do-do, do) 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) I'm keepin' my eye peeled on you What's the good word tonight? Are you gonna be mellow tonight? 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) Can't you see my little doggie and me We're as happy as a christmas tree Headin' for the one I love (the one I love) 
I'm gonna pop her the question, that question Do you Darlin', do ya do? It'll be easy, so easy If I can only bank on you 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) I'm tellin' you why, now you know Keep it in mind tonight Keep brushin' those clouds from sight 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) Don't fail me when I'm needin' you most Hang a moon above her hitching post Hitch me to the one I love (buttermilk sky) 
------ orchestral interlude -----
(gonna pop her the question, the question Darlin', do you do? It'll be easy, so easy) 
If I can only bank on you 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) I'm tellin' you why, now you know Keep it in mind tonight Keep brushin' those clouds from sight 
Ole buttermilk sky (ole buttermilk sky) Don't fail me when I'm needin' you most Hang a moon above her hitching post Hitch me to the one I love (buttermilk sky) 
You can if you try Don't tell me no lie (will you be mellow and bright tonight?
 Oh, butermilk sky!)
