Doggie and Puddy Tat
Being shy Sassy used to run and hide
when a stranger she would spy
But the two old boys had none of that
they would eagerly go on a barking attack
Sassy watch them having fun
and before you knew it she was the one
Prowling the yard listening to hear
anything approaching to bark at with cheer
Being ornery I would point and shout
bad old puddy tat when a stray one was about
Sassy would see and bark in delight
as the scared cat would scurry off in fright
If stray dogs ever abound I would point and shout
doggie and Sassy barking and running with clout
So often did I do this now it seems in a way
Sassy knows the meaning of the words I say
For if no cat is around saying puddy tat
Sassy looks for a cat to bark at
Same goes for doggie she springs to bark
but if not one there it saddens her heart
So I only say doggie and puddy tat
when there are stray dogs and cats
So Sassy can run and bark at them
brings her joy as her tail is a wagging.
