The Dog Song (Album Version) - Nellie Mckay

作词：Nellie Mckay

作曲：Nellie Mckay

I'm just a walkin' my dog

singin' my song

strollin' along

yeah it's just me and my dog

catchin' some sun

we can't 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 I'm happy

'cause I'm just a walkin' my dog

singin' my song

strollin' along

it's just me and my dog

catchin' some sun

we can't go wrong

'cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt

and I don't 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 that's what it's 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

we'll make the happiest home

and I said lord I'm happy

'cause I'm just a walkin' my dog

singin' my song

strollin' along

it's just me and my dog

catchin' some sun

we can't go wrong

'cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt

and I don't 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 that's what it's all about

that's what it's all about

that's what it's all abow-wow-wow-wout

that's what it's all about

(Pant pant pant pant pant)
