Everything was fine
I was having a happy day
I couldn't have asked for anything better
Until my little duckie ran away.

The day was fine,
The skating was hot,
I was having good time
but my little duckie was not.
I had pulled off all my tricks
What more could I want?
I only ask for one thing:
Where was my little Lemont?

Oh duckie, duckie!
How I miss you so !
Oh duckie, duckie!
Wherever did you go?

I can remember when
I'd carry you on my head
We'd play until you were tired
And I'd tuck you into bed.

Oh your hair was so soft
It barely made my fingers bleed,
You'd accompany me in my songs
And I would sing the lead.
But now those days are gone
I feel so alone,
You do not write to me,
You don' t call me on the phone.

Oh duckie, duckie!
How I miss your quack!
Oh duckie, duckie!
When will you come back?

My life is now so empty
Where ever have you gone?
I hope that if you must be gone
You won't be gone too long.
Oh what evil force has gotten you?
Oh what will be your fate?
I'd give up anything for you
(Except for maybe my skate).

I'm coming out looking
But if I can't find you
I hope that you will realize
That I will forever be true.
