Swift Red Furred Little Creature

He was a little red furred devil
	Into this, into that
He was a little red ball of fun
	Into this, into that


He was a tiny red speed demon
	Bouncing ball, spinning twister
The felines loved my little demon
	Swift four-legged creature
The K-9’s did not comprehend my little devil
	Taunting little musical laughter


He died of a broken heart
	Bouncing ball, spinning twister
He tried to fly but Herbie had no wings
	Falling down, crashing down
Herbie the hamster will be sadly missed
	Swift red furred little creature


Today momma’s buying a little red furred devil
	Herbie ΙΙ shall spin again
	Bouncing ball, spinning twister
	Swift red furred little creature
