Lyrics
I'll do anything you ask me baby and then I'll do some more;
I'll take out all your trash and I'll even mop your floor;
But I ain't gonna walk your three legged dog no more.
I'll even do your laundry baby and then I'll iron your clothes;
I'll wash your back sweetheart and paint the polish on your toes;
But I ain't gonna walk your three legged dog no more.
He can't walk in a straight line, always leaning to the right;
He just runs around in circles, you know he ain't too bright;
He's blind in his left eye and can't see out the right;
And when he tries to lift his leg it's such a pitiful sight.
I'll do your grocery shopping and be the chauffeur in your car;
But now you got to back off, 'cause you're pushin' me way too far;
So I ain't gonna walk your three legged dog no more.
