Dog of height in the tree
Won't you come down, doggy?
You're a sweet doggy
I brought you your dinner
My doggy
I miss you kissing from my palm
And I remember when I first got you, doggy
Such a sweet dog
But you lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, dog
Doggy fell to the ground
You twisted your neck, dog
You don't look right, doggy
The vet came with sutures
He said, "Hey Dave
The doctor cannot save your dog"
But I remember when I first got you, doggy
Such a sweet dog
But you lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, doggy
Still, doggy, still, doggy, still, doggy
Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh
Oooooh
Dog of depth in the dirt
They buried you deep, dog
You were the best doggy
My friend has a doggy
She's real nice, dog
Wish you could chase her round my yard
And I remember when I first got you, doggy
Such a sweet dog
But you lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, dog
You lay there so still, doggy
Still, doggy, still, doggy, still, doggy, still, doggy...
