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
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
Well, 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 a bow-wow-wow-wow
That's what it's all about
Good dog
