Nellie McKay – The Dog Song
Wer bei dem schönen Wetter draussen noch immer keine gute Laune hat, kann sich von Nellie McKays Lied „The Dog Song“ aufheitern lassen.
Hier gibts den gesamten Songtext zum Mitsingen:
I’m just a walkin‘ my dog
Singin‘ my song
Strollin‘ along
Yeah it’s just me and my dog
Catchin‘ some sun
We can’t go wrongMy life was lonely and blue
Yeah I was sad as a sailor
I was an angry ‚un too
Then there was you
Appeared, when I was entangled
With youth, and fear, and nerves
Jingle jangle
Vermouth and beer
Were gettin‘ me mangled upBut then I looked in your eyes
And I was no more a failure
You looked so wacky and wise
And I said, lord I’m happy
‚cause I’m just a walkin‘ my dog
Singin‘ my song
Strollin‘ along
It’s just me and my dog
Catchin‘ some sun
We can’t go wrong
‚cause I don’t care ‚bout your hatin‘ and your doubt
And I don’t care what the politicians spout
If you wanna companion
Well just go right to the pound
And find yourself a hound
And make that doggie proud
‚cause that’s what it’s all aboutMy life was tragic and sad
Yeah I was the archetypal loser
I was a pageant gone bad
Then there was you on time
And wagging your tail
In the cutest mime
And you was in jail
I said woof, be mine
And you gave a wail
And then I was no longer alone
And I was no more a boozer
We’ll make the happiest home
And I said lord I’m happy
‚cause I’m just a walkin‘ my dog
Singin‘ my song
Strollin‘ along
It’s just me and my dog
Catchin‘ some sun
We can’t go wrong
‚cause I don’t care ‚bout your hatin‘ and your doubt
And I don’t care what the politicians spout
If you need a companion
Well just go right to the pound
And find yourself a hound
And make that doggie proud
‚cause that’s what it’s all about
That’s what it’s all about
That’s what it’s all abow-wow-wow-wout
That’s what it’s all about
