Robin And The Giant: Music

Doggy Dog World

(Robin And The Giant)
Words and Music by Larry Whitler
Stay with me play with me
Maryanne
I’ll fetch you a bone
From the garbage can
Of a deli on Madison Avenue
Just for you
Ah-ooo ---

Some run in circles
Chasing tails
Others would just as soon
Leave you in jail
If it’s edible, eat it
If not, then just bury it from view
Ah-ooo ---

It’s a doggy dog world
It’s a doggy dog world
We’re pedigree wanna-be’s
Our tails proudly curled
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ah-ooo, Ah-ooo ---

Gimme, gimme somethin’ good to eat
Good to eat off the floor
Then gimme, gimme everything you’ve got
Then gimme some more
Maryanne

A panter, a dancer
A real Fred Astaire
Leave me at home
And I’ll sleep in your chair
Opportunity passes you
Everywhere you go
Ooh-oh ---

It’s a doggy dog world
It’s a doggy dog world
We’re pedigree wanna-be’s
Our tails proudly curled
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ah-ooo, Ah-ooo ---

Gimme, gimme somethin’ good to eat
Good to eat off the floor
Then gimme, gimme everything you’ve got
Then gimme some more
Maryanne
