The Life of a Dog is for Me

Tune: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

When I'm just a dreamin' and schemin'
I think of things I'd like to be
And the thing that I've finally decided,
Is the life of a dog is for me, for me!
The life of a dog is for me!

A dogs life is simply quite lovely
Chasing mailmen would really be fun!
I'd torment the cat and I'd chew up your hat,
And then I would lie in the sun, the sun!
Then I would lie in the sun!

When people come by I'd be just a bit shy
I'd lick them and when I was through
I'd show them a trick and I'd chase them a stick
And then I would pee on their shoe, their shoe!
Then I would pee on their show!

I'd lie on the floor and I'd bark at the door
And when I was wet I would stink
I'd scratch at a flea, and I'd climb on your knee
And out of the toilet I'd drink, I'd drink!
Out of the toilet I'd drink!
