Thread Name: BS: What Dogs Talk About at the Kennel
Subject: Lyr Add: THE DOGS' MEETING
paddymac, "The Dogs' Meeting" is to the tune of "The Chandler's Wife" and also the hit song of the 50s, "The Thing". It uses the same "Knock, knock, knock" idea. I think it's in here somewhere. If not I know the words as they were collected in Australia. It doesn't change much. I'm on a roll. Might as well post the words: Last lines are repeated.
THE DOGS' MEETING
The dogs once held a meeting, they came from near and far Some they came by aeroplane and some by motor car Before into the concert hall they were allowed to look Each dog had to take his (Knock, knock, knock) and hang it on a hook.
Well hardly were they seated there, each father, son and sire When a dirty little yeller dog began to holler "Fire!" Out they rushed in panic, they didn't stop to look Each dog he grabbed a (Knock, knock, knock) from off the nearest hook
And that's the reason why, my friends, when walking down the street Each dog will stop and swap a smell with every dog he meets And that's the reason why a dog will leave a good fat bone To go and smell a (Knock, knock, knock) in hopes to find his own.
