Song Description

I never had a pet dog, but Mary Jo did, Mandy was MJ's very opinionated Cocker Spaniel. This is a fun novelty song that says what some dogs are undoubtedly thinking.

Lyrics

MJ VERSE 1) I have a doggy an expressive dog he's so funny the way he behaves
I wonder what he's thinking when he's acting different ways
If he could talk I wonder what he'd say when he wants to play

DOG VERSE 1) I want to play come out and play
Oh what a day to run and play
What do you say come out and play with me
I - I'm desperately wantin' some runnin' and jumpin' some fetchin' and tuggin' today howl
Oh this is fun watch me run think I'll run away

That's my favorite part of the whole day
She calls out my name I run farther away
But the most fun I have when I'm breaking this rule is when the neighbors are watching her act like a fool Woo-hoo

MJ VERSE 2) I have a doggy an excessive dog he's a glutton the way he behaves
I always hear him whining for those treats he always craves
If he could talk I wonder what he'd say when he starts to beg

DOG VERSE 2) Please I'm beggin' you please
I want steak and cheese
I'm on my dog knees
I'll get a disease if you don't feed me
Oh why can't you read me
I'm starving Ohhh
I need to eat won't you give me a treat don't you love me

Oh boy oh boy oh boy they're goin' to the kitchen
I'll trot right in there with'em and see what they are fixin'
Hey if they bump that pizza on the 'frigerator door
I'll be pickin' pepperoni that I'm lickin' off the floor

CHORUS) A dog's life is a very good life
A human couldn't ask for more
They're pampered and petted their bellies are rubbed
It makes a doggy's spirit soar
A dog is my best friend

MJ VERSE 3) I have a doggy a possessive dog he's agressive the way he behaves
At the slightest noises he explodes he rants and raves
If he could talk I wonder what he'd say when the mailman comes our way

DOG VERSE 3) Out out out out out out out out out out out
Get out of our yard before I bite you
This is my house this is my yard this is my family I've been given to guard
So beat it bum
You better run run run run
I have to defend gonna' bite your hind end again

Hooray another great display of loyalty and courage
I scared that mailman bad today he walked away discouraged
A mailman is a criminal his encroachment is a crime
So keep his mailings minimal take a bite out of behind

CHORUS) A dog's life is a very good life
A human couldn't ask for more
They're pampered and petted their bellies are rubbed
It makes a doggy's spirit soar
A dog is my best friend
Man you're my best friend
You are my best friend
