Hiya!

While I don't know the lyrics myself, I did find a link to this two year old thread that does have them, as well as some other info for you.

Hope this is what you're looking for!

Here is how it appears in Lyrics World.

The Doggie In the Window
Patti Page
Words and Music by Bob Merrill

Peaked at # 1 in 1953

CHORUS
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*
The one with the waggley tail
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*
I do hope that doggie's for sale

I must take a trip to California
And leave my poor sweetheart alone
If he has a dog, he won't be lonesome
And the doggie will have a good home

CHORUS

I read in the paper there are robbers **(roof! roof!)**
With flashlights that shine in the dark
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark

I don't want a bunny or a kitty
I don't want a parrot that talks
I don't want a bowl of little fishies
He can't take a goldfish for a walk

How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*
The one with the waggley tail
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*
I do hope that doggie's for sale

I do hope that doggie's for sale

TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: "*(arf! arf!)*" sounds like a small dog, perhaps Pekingese. **"**(roof!
roof!)**" is a bigger dog, maybe a German Shepherd.

Then there was Homer & Jethro's immortal take, with my favorite pun:

How much is that hound dog in the winder,
With the basketball nose on his face?
Do you know what a basketball nose is?
-- It dribbles all over the place.

Sound effects too! Do "Pretty Polly!" after the parrot line (in a parrot accent), and a kind of bubbling gluggy noise for the bowl of fishes. There's probably lots more too.

Grab.
