HOUN' DAWG
Homer & Jethro
You're a puny little hound dog. You ain't very stout. (2x)
Well, you look like an Airedale with the air let out.
Well, you said you was high-class, that you had a pedigree. (2x)
You ain't nothin' but a mongrel an' you got a million fleas.
Well, they said you was a bird-dog but you look like a goat. (2x)
But you couldn't be a bird-dog. You ain't never sung a note.
Now once I had a hound-dog, an' 'er name was Kim. (2x)
She ain't never had a puppy so I got rid o' him.
