Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: kytrad (Jean Ritchie) Date: 26 Feb 07 - 06:15 PM From being rocked in Mama's arms (about 1925...) I had a little doggie Used to sit and beg Doggie tumbled down the stairs And broke his little leg; Now doggie I will nurse you And try to make you well, And you shall have a collar and A pretty little bell. And when your leg is better So you can run and play And have a scamper in the fields To seem them making hay- The pretty yellow chickiens That play upon the grass, You must not even wag your tail Or scare them as you pass. I want to go to Grandmamas, You know you said I might- I want to go so very bad, I want to go tonight. She lets me wash the dishes And look in Grandpa's watch- I wish I had three-four pennies to buy some butterSCOTCH! (SCOTCH is hollered, accompanied with a good hard hug) Not much of a song, but I used to love it- even now I smile at the pictures it gives- and the dreamy wanderings as the child's mind shifts from one thing to another. So true to life. [See My Little Doggy.] |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: WyoWoman Date: 23 Feb 07 - 05:28 PM Corgi and Bess??? HAHAHAHAHAHA! Actually, it's for a fundraiser for the Bark Park (off-leash park) sponsored by the Humane Society. So the cats will have to wait for a more general fundraiser. --ww |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: SharonA Date: 23 Feb 07 - 12:23 PM Guest Jim mentioned Lou and Peter Berryman's "The Dog of Time" but neglected to mention their song "Ralph to Rose", which is about Peter's dogs Rosie and Izzy. It includes clever choruses where Rose barks "Ralph! Ralph! Ralph!" sharply and Izzy barks "Ruth, Ruth, Ruth" laconically. I saw Lou and Peter in concert last week, and they sang a brand-new dog song that has not yet been released on CD. It describes symptoms of the insecure dog. Unfortunately I don't remember the entire title; it's "Is Your Dog [insert word I forgot here]". I'm sure that if you email them, they'll tell you what it is. See www.louandpeter.com for contact info. [Does Your Dog Agonize?] - - - - - - - Then there's the old music-hall song "Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me a Bow-Wow." The chorus includes the lyric "I have a little cat and I'm very fond of that, but I'd rather have a bow-wow-wow." Supposedly the lyrics contain a lot of sexual innuendo, but because of their intentional obfuscation (and the passage of many decades), the sexual references are not obvious to me. |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: GUEST,Nick Date: 22 Feb 07 - 09:11 PM Just an aside prompted by Songster Bob's contribution. The US government did not bring home dogs they used in the Vietnam war either. Saw a gut wrenching piece on Animal planet of a Soldier trying to at least get a memorial of sorts for those brave dogs.

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs (and cats) From: vlmagee Date: 22 Feb 07 - 08:15 PM WyoWoman, surely you should include some songs about cats too? For ideas, check out Cindy Mangsen's CD Cat Tales. You can find information about it at her (and husband Steve Gillette's) web site at compassrosemusic.com. If you go to the store page, there is a link to song clips. Cindy's original, Rudy's Great Adventure, is a very funny song about the cat who got his head stuck in a garbage disposal and lived to bask in fame and glory (his owner's account was published in Reader's Digest). Of course, it's a long song with complicated lyrics, so I can imagine it will be a bit of work to learn it! |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Richard Bridge Date: 22 Feb 07 - 06:02 PM Black Dog. The Poacher and his little grey dog. DAMN! someone beat me to Piddlin' Pete. The proper name for the story about the dog, the baby and the wolf is Beth Gelert, and there is a cairn for the dog somewhere in Wales. |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: WyoWoman Date: 22 Feb 07 - 04:33 PM This is great. My band is going to do a fundraiser for (I think) the Humane Society in Kansas City soon and we've just been discussing what songs we might include. Now I get to be lazy and seem very smart at the same time. Thanks! --WyoWoman |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: GUEST,Jim Date: 22 Feb 07 - 03:20 AM There's the Lou and Peter Berryman song "The Dog of Time," which has always been one of my favorites. Not sure if it qualifies, though; those are all metaphorical dogs. |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE BLIND BOY'S DOG (Hank Snow) From: Songster Bob Date: 21 Feb 07 - 12:31 PM From Hank Snow, by way of U. Utah Phillips: The Blind Boy's Dog I gave my dog to Uncle Sam in 1943 He sailed across the sea And died for Liberty. Now that you are sending heroes home I just don't understand Why don't you send my dog home, Uncle Sam? He'd sleep beneath Old Glory Right here on Daddy's farm. I'd be close by to keep him from all harm. No one knows how much I miss him And how lonesome now I am. Why don't you send my dog home, Uncle Sam? I gave my dog to Uncle Sam, he was so brave and smart; We both knew from the start that we would have to part. You wrote he died a hero, it was in the telegram, Why don't you send my dog home, Uncle Sam? It's true no more he'll lead me, Like he did in days of yore. He'll never be a blind boy's pal no more. No one knows how much I miss him And how lonesome now I am. Why don't you send my dog home, Uncle Sam? The untold point of this song is that the dogs trained to guard ammo dumps, etc., in combat zones were all destroyed, rather than attempting to retrain them, since the training was rudimentary, quick, and vicious, resulting in savage, barely-controllable dogs. That was most of the dogs, though a few who were trained as police patrol dogs, were kept, if needed. Of course, the other reason for not retraining and returning dogs to their former owners was simply financial. It was too expensive to do. The same was true of most of the horses in WWI, at least in some theaters of operation. Bob |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: GUEST Date: 21 Feb 07 - 11:15 AM Bill Crisp's wonderful - Red Rover - A hunting song that can bring a tear to the eye of pro and anti alike. A rare thing. The Terrier Song is little known outside of the hunting fraternity. (To the tune best known as Bellman) Always remember your terriers Protect them from wet and from cold For he love of a Tyke for his master Can never be measured in gold. |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Leadfingers Date: 21 Feb 07 - 08:39 AM I recall Johnny Collins singing a song called 'Hunting Dogs' which lists the good points of various dogs , and finishes with Tha Springer as the best of all ! Lovely Song ! |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: fisheye Date: 21 Feb 07 - 05:53 AM here's one I wrote for my old Ben. nov/03 They say it is for life but whose life does it mean. My old friend has left me no more, no never to be seen. Now some of you remember the black shadow on the floor the one you tripped over as you went towards the door. They give their love to you freely asking very little in return so when their time does come it is you they look towards. As the memories flash before you it is you that must bare the pain to release them, let them go Release their soul again. But they get so deep inside you where that pain begins to talk From that little bouncy puppy to the old friend that can hardly walk They look to you for guidance even though they cannot walk It is you that must thank you when it's time for their last walk. fisheye |

Subject: Lyr Add: DOWN THE RIVER (Henry Lawson) From: JennyO Date: 19 Feb 07 - 08:16 AM A friend of mine, Rhymin' Simon, sings this Henry Lawson poem as a song. The first time I heard him sing it was at a session round a campfire, and as he sang it, he patted an imaginary dog. It was one of those magic moments - lovely! And in case anyone goes looking for a tune - no, it's not the Chris Kempster one. I don't know where he got the tune. Must ask him. DOWN THE RIVER - Henry Lawson I've done with joys an' misery, An' why should I repine? There's no one knows the past but me An' that ol' dog o' mine. We camp an' walk an' camp an' walk, An' find it fairly good; He can do anything but talk, An' he wouldn't if he could. We sits an' thinks beside the fire, With all the stars a-shine, An' no one knows our thoughts but me An' that there dog o' mine. We has our Johnny-cake an' "scrag," An' finds 'em fairly good; He can do anything but talk, An' he wouldn't if he could. He gets a 'possum now an' then, I cooks it on the fire; He has his water, me my tea— What more could we desire? He gets a rabbit when he likes, We finds it pretty good; He can do anything but talk, An' he wouldn't if he could. I has me smoke, he has his rest, When sunset's gettin' dim; An' if I do get drunk at times, It's all the same to him. So long's he's got me swag to mind, He thinks that times is good; He can do anything but talk, An' he wouldn't if he could. He gets his tucker from the cook, For cook is good to him, An' when I sobers up a bit, He goes an' has a swim. He likes the rivers where I fish, An' all the world is good; He can do anything but talk, An' he wouldn't if he could. |

Subject: Lyr Add: DAD GAVE MY DOG AWAY (T. Texas Tyler) From: Gene Date: 19 Feb 07 - 12:31 AM DAD GAVE MY DOG AWAY As recorded by T. Texas Tyler, 1959. [It was the B side of DECK OF CARDS]
[SPOKEN]
I know dogs are a lot o' work if folks don't want them there.
I hurried home from school last night, and with the usual glee,
I know a new bike cost a lot and would please many boys,
Dad says that boys outgrow such things as counting dogs their friends.
When I'm grown and have a lad who'll want a dog instead Please, dear God, send me another dog, because Dad gave my dog away. |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: GUEST,Catherine Date: 18 Feb 07 - 04:38 PM If anyone is interested, I have a song that my mother sang to me back in the l950's. I still sing it today. The dog's name is "Buddy" and is very sad. Hope you like it. [LITTLE BUDDY from Hank Snow.] Broken hearted and so sad, golden curls all wet with tears, twas a picture of sorrow to see. standing close by the side of his pal and only pride, a little lad, these words he said to me. He was such a lovely doggy, and to me he was such fun, but today as we played by the way. A drunken man got mad at him because he barked in joy, he beat him, now he's dying here today. Will you call the doctor please and tell him, if he comes right now, he may save my precious doggy, because I prayed. But when I lifted up his head, his little pal was dead, just a shiver, and he slowly passed away. There's a tiny narrow grave, where the willows softly play and there on a shingle of pine, Little Buddy, rest in Peace God will watch you through the years, cause I told him, in my prayers, that you were mine. Cheers Catherine |

Subject: Lyr Add: AN OLD FRIEND (Gordon Lightfoot) From: vlmagee Date: 18 Feb 07 - 03:56 PM Piddlin' Pete ... one of my favorites. Lightfoot wrote a sweet song called An Old Friend, that was on the Warner Brothers Publishing Demos. You'll see bootleg CD-Rs of it, and if you are really nutty (like me), you'll have collected the actual record company vinyl. (We all have our weaknesses). The song is actually very moving, one of the best on the demos. -------------------------------------------------------------- An Old Friend, Gordon Lightfoot Be still you good old friend, be still you faithful one You dare not leave my sight Be still you good old friend, be still and dream your dreams Of days of youth and love Be still you good old friend, remember that Christmas tree Where our two hearts became as one Recall the fields of hay, where you would romp and run A small boy at your side The years have quickly flown, a child I am no more But I will love you always Be still you good old friend, be still you faithful one You dare not leave my sight |

Subject: Lyr Add: I'M A HARD WORKIN' DOG (Sesame Street) From: Kaleea Date: 16 Feb 07 - 08:47 PM one of my favorites is a Sesame Street song called "I'm A Hard Workin' Dog." I'm a dog I'm a workin' dog I'm a hard workin' dog Hard workin' dog (spoken) You know, it takes all kinds to make a world. Some dogs are known as Russian wolfhounds. Other dogs are known as German shepherds. I even heard of a dog they call a French poodle. I'm just an American cow dog. (sung) I'm a dog I'm a workin' dog I'm a hard workin' dog Hard workin' dog (spoken) Now I never said I was a hog And you can see I'm not a frog I'm tryin' to tell ya, I'm a dog I'm a cow dog (sung) I'm a dog I'm a workin' dog I'm a hard workin' dog Hard workin' dog (spoken) Now some dogs can fetch a stick Other dogs will shake your hand I even heard of a dog that can roll over All I know how to do Is take a hundred cows and teach 'em some manners (sung) I'm a dog I'm a workin' dog I'm a hard workin' dog Hard workin' dog (spoken) Now I'm not the top dog I'm not much of a bird dog I'm not the best watch dog But I'm an awful good cow dog (sung) I'm a dog I'm a workin' dog I'm a hard workin' dog Workin' like a dog-gone dog (spoken) It's a dog's life, and I love it! |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Big Jim from Jackson Date: 16 Feb 07 - 08:22 PM Bob Dyer has a great song about Jim. The Wonder Dog. It sounds like a tall tale, but is based on the life of a dog from Marshal, Missouri. Quite a story. |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: HuwG Date: 16 Feb 07 - 07:05 PM Strangers in the night exchanging glances Wond'ring in the night What were the chances we'd be sharing love Before the night was through. Something in your eyes was so inviting, Something in you smile was so exciting, Something in my heart, Told me I must have you. ... Scooby Dooby Doo ! Be dooby dooby ! Scooby Dooby Doo ! Be dooby dooby ! ... Oh, dear ;-) |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: GUEST,Nick Date: 16 Feb 07 - 06:55 PM I can also think of a couple of passing lines one from a song Bonnie Raitt sings " I had a little wiener dog, I loved that litle wiener dog and she loved me" I like that one cause we recently adopted a little wiener dog! We nammed her Matilda,she keeps my Chow/Lab Mix company... but I digress. And one of my favorites from Great Big Sea "The Old Black Rum's Got A Hold On Me Like A Dog Wrapped Round My Leg."

Subject: Lyr Add: THE DUEL (Eugene Field) From: Charley Noble Date: 16 Feb 07 - 03:29 PM THE DUEL (The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat) (By Eugene Field) The gingham dog and the calico cat Side by side on the table sat; 'Twas half-past twelve, and (what do you think!) Nor one nor t'other had slept a wink! The old Dutch clock and the Chinese plate Appeared to know as sure as fate There was going to be a terrible spat. (I wasn't there; I simply state What was told to me by the Chinese plate!) The gingham dog went " Bow-wow-wow!" And the calico cat replied "Me-ow!" The air was littered, an hour or so, With bits of gingham and calico, While the old Dutch clock in the chimney place Up with it hands before its face, For it always dreaded a family row! (Now mind: I'm only telling you What the old Dutch clock declares is true!) The Chinese plate looked very blue, And wailed,"Oh dear! What shall we do!" But the gingham dog and the calico cat Wallowed this way and tumbled that, Employing every tooth and claw In the awfullest way you ever saw- And oh! how the gingham and calico flew! (Don't fancy I exaggerate! I got my news from the Chinese plate!) Next morning where the two had sat They found no trace of dog or cat; And some folks think unto this day That burglars stole the pair away! But the truth about the cat and pup Is this: they ate each other up! Now what do you really think of that! (The old Dutch clock, it told me so, And that is how I came to know.) Anyone got a tune for this poem? Cheerily, Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Scrump Date: 16 Feb 07 - 10:51 AM Charley, there's no need to commemorate longdogs, as they still seem to be thriving - for example, see The Sussex Longdog Association. Or you may find the Show of Hands' fan site www.longdogs.co.uk more to your taste :-) |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Charley Noble Date: 16 Feb 07 - 08:42 AM Thanks, Scrumpy. I was certain there was at least one lurcher song. I suppose I should also mention the chorus I composed for "Dead Dog Scrumpy": Here's to dead dog cider, The best there is by far; Here's to dead dog cider, No moaning at the bar; You can search this wide world over, Find many a beer or ale, But when you're tried dead dog cider Your search will be curtailed! Cheerily, Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Scrump Date: 16 Feb 07 - 07:40 AM Don't see any songs about Lurchers, that famous Irish/Gypsy hunting dog, a favorite of poachers.

Subject: RE: Songs About Dogs From: Bob Bolton Date: 15 Feb 07 - 09:43 PM G'day Charley Noble, Back a day (or two ... by our local date!) you included in your (dubious) nautical sea song: "The Dogger Bank" (Nothing to do with dogs)". For what it's worth, the Dogger Bank is a spot (~) between England and Holland fished from a "dogger" - ": a two-masted bluff-bowed Dutch fishing boat, Middle English from Middle Dutch (Australian Concise Oxford Dictionary). (But, of course, you knew that!) Regard(les)s, Bob |
