[1st verse:] Ev'ry time I see you sitting in your lady's lap My heart fills up with sympathy for you I am pretty sure that you would be a far more happy chap If you could do what other doggies do They say it's blissful to be dumb and if that's really so I'm mighty glad that ignorance is bliss It's better that they meant you to be dumb because I know 'Twould break your heart if you knew what you miss [1st refrain:] You've never had a horseshoe or a can tied to your tail You never yet have stuck your nose into a garbage pail You're not allowed to chase the cat around the place Or come home in the evening with a lovely dirty face While all the other human dogs go 'round without a care A-hunting for their breakfast and their dinner here and there They feed you indigestion from a Plaza bill of fare Poor little rich girl's dog [2nd verse:] Ev'ry day an English butler dolls you up in style And you and Madam motor off to tea Then you have to sit up straight and look your very grandest while Your Mistress lies about your pedigree They pick you out a "soul mate" that they purchase at the store Letras de cancionesYou're not allowed to choose your future wife You have to marry someone that you never met before My God, but you do lead a rotten life [2nd refrain:] You've never sunk your teeth into a hobo's trouser patch They chase the fleas so you can't have a good old-fashioned scratch You're not allowed to "greet" a dog upon the street The straight and narrow path for yours, you can't be indiscreet You don't know what it means to find a great big juicy bone Your Mistress doesn't think it right to let you out alone Her husband who wears corsets has to be your chaperone Poor little rich girl's dog From Letras Mania
