A Girl And Her Dog

Keepin' with the dog theme some of us got goin' these past few days 🐶 and there's NOTHING like, LIKE minds! Wrote this doggie-ditty a few months before Mizz Jozie passed over the rainbow at the ripe age of 16, July 2024. Song coming soon.🐕️ Like most of my other songs, begs to be re-sung.

A GIRL AND HER DOG

[Verse 1]

This mutt ‘a mine ain’t good for much

She’s bitchy, old and gray

And these days I’ll be darned if I can

Get ‘er to come, sit an’ stay

But we’ve got heaps ‘a sweet-memories

From the start we were meant to be

 

[Chorus]

A girl and her dog

Ain’t nothin’ sweeter in the world

A girl and her dog

More special than diamonds and pearls

Ain’t no denyin’, she’ll leave you cryin’

When it’s down to you or her dog

 

[Verse 2]

Let ‘er out, she’s barkin’ up a storm

She longs to be with her Maw

And when I’m in my chair legs crossed

That ol’ girl’s crossin’ her paws

Anyone can see she looks like me

To my heart Mizz Jozie holds the key

 

[Chorus]

A girl and her dog

Ain’t nothin’ sweeter in the world

A girl and her dog

More special than diamonds and pearls

Ain’t no denyin’, she’ll leave you cryin’

When it’s down to you or her dog

 

[Verse 3]

And I miss our evening walks in the park

Arth-a-ritis is a bitch!

I suppose that ol’ pooch takes after me

And isn’t that mighty rich?

And I’m dreadin’ the day she passes away

That will surely be my saddest day

 

[Instrumental]

 

…….ain’t no denyin’ she’ll leave you cryin’

When it’s down to you or her dog…….

 

One more..

 

[Chorus/Tag]

A girl and her dog

Ain’t nothin’ sweeter in the world

A girl and her dog

More special than diamonds and pearls

Ain’t no denyin’, she’ll leave you cryin’

When it’s down to you or her dog

No, there ain’t no denyin’, she’ll leave you cryin’

When it’s down to you or her dog.

  • Very sweet touching song, I'm sure there'll be a few out there with similar memories.

    If you can make 'em cry, you've got a friend for life.

    Lovely song, good luck getting it to music.
