She Adored Her Dog

She could forgive her dog a transgression or two.
He could chew up her pillow, a boot, a dress and a shoe.
But if a man got close and made one little mistake,
Out she would throw him with a kick and a shake.

My dog is my world, she told us, but we already knew. She could forgive her dog a transgression or two.
He could chew up her pillow, a boot, a dress and a shoe.
But if a man got close and made one little mistake,
Out she would throw him with a kick and a shake.

My dog is my world, she told us, but we already knew.
He was her prince, her king, and her love interest too.
He never made her angry like a man who did something wrong.
She adored her dog all her life, it was her daily love song!
He was her prince, her king, and her love interest too.
He never made her angry like a man who did something wrong.
She adored her dog all her life, it was her daily love song!
