Puttin’
On The Dog
Mike
Snider
Said she’d look real classy, make me
proud’a her
If I’d run down to the store and buy her a
fur.
Well, she put me t’ thinkin’ how that I
was gonna swing that kinda deal
She knows we can’t afford nuthin’ like
that and I’m too afraid t’ steal!
But the problem finally solved itself like
a bolt out of the blue
It just jumped right out in front of me on
highway twenty-two
That big ol’ German Shepard, my car he
didn’t see
He went to dog heaven left his hide there
for me.
For six weeks in the basement I worked on
it every night
It was trial and error but I finally got
it right
I put it in a Captain Crunch box carried
it upstairs to her
Oooo, how she kissed me when she seen her
fur
Now she’s got that fuzzy fur coat reaches
all the way down to her knees
She’s been complainin’ lately says her
closet’s plumb full of fleas
She don’t know old Fido is wrapped around
her tight
She’s puttin’ on the dog when she goes out
at night
Yeah, she don’t know old Fido is wrapped
around her tight
She’s really puttin’ on the dog when she
goes out at night
She’s been real depressed since I backed
out over the cat
I believe she’s gonna smile real big when
I show her that new fur hat!
