[00:00.00]The Dog Song (Album Version) - Nellie McKay
[00:11.94]I'm just a walkin' my dog
[00:14.06]Singin' my song
[00:14.50]Strollin' along
[00:14.81]Yeah it's just me and my dog
[00:15.81]
[00:16.43]Catchin' some sun
[00:18.12]We can't go wrong
[00:20.12]
[00:21.93]My life was lonely and blue
[00:23.55]
[00:25.29]Yeah I was sad as a sailor
[00:27.04]
[00:29.04]I was an angry 'un too
[00:30.79]
[00:32.72]Then there was you
[00:34.15]
[00:35.03]Appeared  when I was entangled
[00:36.40]With youth  and fear  and nerves
[00:39.27]Jingle jangle
[00:40.08]
[00:40.64]Vermouth and beer
[00:41.64]
[00:42.27]Were gettin' me mangled up
[00:43.83]
[00:45.89]But then I looked in your eyes
[00:47.57]
[00:48.69]And I was no more a failure
[00:50.82]
[00:52.00]You looked so wacky and wise
[00:53.75]
[00:55.12]And I said  lord I'm happy
[00:57.31]'Cause I'm just a walkin' my dog
[00:59.87]Singin' my song
[01:01.49]Strollin' along
[01:02.61]
[01:04.29]It's just me and my dog
[01:06.04]
[01:06.60]Catchin' some sun
[01:08.29]We can't go wrong
[01:10.28]
[01:10.91]'Cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt
[01:14.03]And I don't care what the politicians spout
[01:16.90]If you wanna companion
[01:18.64]Well just go right to the pound
[01:20.70]And find yourself a hound
[01:22.26]And make that doggie proud
[01:24.01]'Cause that's what it's all about
[01:26.69]
[01:35.24]My life was tragic and sad
[01:36.68]
[01:38.49]Yeah I was the archetypal loser
[01:40.68]
[01:41.92]I was a pageant gone bad
[01:43.67]
[01:46.16]Then there was you on time
[01:49.22]And wagging your tail
[01:50.53]In the cutest mime
[01:52.53]And you was in jail
[01:53.84]I said woof  be mine
[01:55.15]And you gave a wail
[01:57.02]
[01:59.39]And then I was no longer alone
[02:01.39]
[02:02.39]And I was no more a boozer
[02:03.88]
[02:05.38]We'll make the happiest home
[02:06.32]And I said lord I'm happy
[02:10.87]'Cause I'm just a walkin' my dog
[02:12.50]
[02:13.37]Singin' my song
[02:14.99]Strollin' along
[02:15.99]
[02:17.55]It's just me and my dog
[02:19.05]
[02:19.93]Catchin' some sun
[02:21.05]
[02:21.61]We can't go wrong
[02:23.60]
[02:24.60]'Cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt
[02:27.41]And I don't care what the politicians spout
[02:30.47]If you need a companion
[02:31.53]Well just go right to the pound
[02:34.02]And find yourself a hound
[02:35.59]And make that doggie proud
[02:37.33]'Cause that's what it's all about
[02:39.58]
[02:40.70]That's what it's all about
[02:42.95]
[02:44.01]That's what it's all abow-wow-wow-wout
[02:47.44]That's what it's all about
