House at Pooh Corner

About House at Pooh Corner

"House at Pooh Corner" is a song written by Kenny Loggins, based on the popular children's book of the same name. The song was first performed by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on their 1970 album Uncle Charlie & His Dog Teddy and then performed by Loggins and Messina on their 1971 album Sittin' In. It is told from the perspective of both Winnie-the-Pooh and Christopher Robin, and serves as an allegory for loss of innocence and nostalgia for childhood. It has since become one of Loggins' most popular and beloved compositions, and it remains a staple of his live performances.  more »

Christopher Robin and I walked along,
Under branches lit up by the moon.
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore,

As the days disappeared far too soon.
Now I wandered much further today than I should,
And I can't find my way to the three-acre wood.
So help me if you can, I've got to get 

Back to the house At Pooh Corner by one. 
You'll be surprised, there's so much to be done, 
Count all the bees in the hive, 
Chase all the clouds from the sky, 

Back to the days of Christopher Robin, 
And Pooh. 
Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do, 
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose. 

He came to me asking help and advice, 
And from here no one knows where he goes. 
So I went in to ask of the Owl, if he's there, 
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear. 

So help me if you can I've got to get, 
Back to the house At Pooh Corner by one. 
You'll be surprised there's so much to be done, 
Count all the bees in the hive, 

Chase all the clouds from the sky, 
Back to the days of Christopher Robin, 
Back to the ways of Christopher Robin, 
And Pooh.
