Little Brown Jug

Michigan and Wisconsin played a football game today. The victor of this game gets possession of an old brown water jug that has been passed back and forth for decades.

Why am I telling you this?

All of these mentions of the 'Little Brown Jug' reminds me of the song that I sing to Bridgit, to the tune of "Little Brown Jug".

I will publish the words here, so you can sing along with me.

Are you ready?

Let's warm up a bit. Mi mi mi MI mi mi mi...ha ha ha HA ha ha haaaa....mi mi mi....

I have a dog, she is so cute
She always wears a brown fur suit
She loves me, and I love her
She is covered in soft brown fur

Ho ho ho, Hee hee hee,
Little brown dog, how I love thee
Ho ho ho, Hee hee hee,
Little brown dog, how I love theeee.......(big finish)

In case you are curious, here are the original words. There is a link at the bottom that has an awfully repetitive, tinny, little version of the song, if you want to sing along at your desk. Beware, it is awfully catchy.

Me and my wife live all alone
In a little log hut we call our own;
She loves gin and I love rum,
And don't we have a lot of fun!

Ha, ha, ha, you and me,
Little brown jug, don't I love thee!
Ha, ha, ha, you and me,
Little brown jug, don't I love thee!

When I go toiling on the farm
I take the little jug under my arm;
Place it under a shady tree,
Little brown jug,'tis you and me.

Ha, ha, ha, you and me,
Little brown jug, don't I love thee!
Ha, ha, ha, you and me,
Little brown jug, don't I love thee!
