The Dog Song - Nellie McKay
Im just a walkin my dog
singin my song
strollin along
yeah its just me and my dog
catchin some sun
we cant go wrong
My life was lonely and blue
yeah I was sad as a sailor
I was an angry un too
Then there was you
appeared, when I was entangled
with youth, and fear, and nerves
jingle jangle
vermouth and beer
were gettin me mangled up
But then I looked in your eyes
and I was no more a failure
you looked so wacky and wise
and I said, lord Im happy
cause Im just a walkin my dog
singin my song
strollin along
its just me and my dog
catchin some sun
we cant go wrong
cause I dont care bout your
hatin and your doubt
and I dont care what the
politicians spout
if you wanna companion
well just go right to the pound
and find yourself a hound
and make that doggie proud
cause thats what its all about

My life was tragic and sad
yeah I was the archetypal loser
I was a pageant gone bad
Then there was you on time
and wagging your tail
in the cutest mime
and you was in jail
I said woof, be mine
and you gave a wail
and then I was no longer alone
and I was no more a boozer
well make the happiest home
and I said lord Im happy
cause Im just a walkin my dog
singin my song
strollin along
its just me and my dog
catchin some sun
we cant go wrong
cause I dont care bout your
hatin and your doubt
and I dont care what the
politicians spout
if you need a companion
well just go right to the pound
and find yourself a hound
and make that doggie proud
cause thats what its all about
thats what its all about
thats what its all abow
wow wow wout tha
