Standard (EADGBE)

You can scratch your own back

You don’t have fleas

You stand up in my defense

When they make fun of me

You brush your own teeth

You don’t bark a lot

You don’t have a crazy name

Like Bingo, Fido or Spot

Dogs are good and dogs are nice

But they never spoke up and gave me good advice

You can take ‘em for walks and there’s tricks they can do

But I would rather hang out with you

They say that a dog is a man’s best friend

But my best friend is you

When you fall

It’s always nice to have a friend

To be there when you hit the ground

To pick you back up again

Like when my car broke down

I knew all I had to do was call your phone

If you were a dog,

I would to had to hoof it on home alone

Chorus

Solo verse

Chorus

You can roll over once

But you don’t play dead

You have all kinds of brains and thoughts

Rollin around in your head

We have the funniest conversations

Laughin’ all day long

I know that it’s just understood

But it sounds better in a song

And if you like it you can sing along

Double Chorus
