Last Time I Saw Ollie Lyrics

Ollie is my puppy's name—he's made of cloth and stuffed with foam.

He's a rambling dog and oh, so hard to find!

“Mum,” I say, “I can't find Ollie!

I've his dinner and he's late!”

“Well, the last time I saw Ollie

He was by the garden gate.”

Ollie often plays a game of hide and seek when he gets bored.

He's a clever dog and knows just where to hide!

“Mum,” I say, “have you seen Ollie?

Now he's hid himself from me!”

“Well, the last time I saw Ollie

He was in the beechnut tree.”

Ollie sometimes likes some time and space to be all by himself.

He's a pensive dog and needs his privacy.

“Mum,” I call, “I'm short one Ollie!

And it's nearly time for bed!”

“Well, the last time I saw Ollie

He was in the old tool shed.”

Ollie has a silly way of making accidents occur.

He's a clumsy dog, I can't keep him in line.

“Mum,” I say, “the fault was Ollie's,

I am not the one to blame!”

“Well, the next time I see Ollie

I'll say he should be ashamed!”

Ollie often spends his nights with me all cozy in my bed.

He's a cuddly dog when we're tucked up real tight.

“Mum,” I say, “I love my Ollie,”

As the Sandman comes in sight.

But my Mum just kisses both of us

And then turns out the light.
