Girl and Rene'

I talk to her when I'm lonesome like; and I'm sure she understands.
When she looks at me so attentively, and gently licks my hands;
then she rubs her nose on my tailored clothes,
but I never say naught thereat.
For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes,
but never a friend like that.
