Layla, Little Boston Belle

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Layla’s got a button nose, Little tuxedo, tiny toes. She trots the hall like she owns the place, Then trips on her ears and saves her face. [Chorus] Oh, Layla, little Boston belle, You wiggle your rump like a carousel. One soft snort and a sideways grin, You steal my slipper, then bring it in. [Verse 2] She chases a leaf across the floor, Stops to inspect the kitchen door. A biscuit crumb? She’s on the case, With serious eyes and a frosting face. [Chorus] Oh, Layla, little Boston belle, You wiggle your rump like a carousel. One soft snort and a sideways grin, You steal my slipper, then bring it in. [Bridge] At bedtime she circles, once, then twice, Claims my pillow—quite precise. I scoot an inch; she takes the rest, And snores like a queen in her Sunday best. [Final Chorus] Oh, Layla, little Boston belle, You wiggle your rump like a carousel. My small parade, my pal for life, You make each ordinary day feel nice. [Outro] Goodnight, Layla, tuck in tight, Dream of biscuits till morning light.
