Walking The Dog

1. Baby back, dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High, low, tipsy toe
She broke a needle and she can't sew.

[Chorus:]
Walkin' the dog
Jes' a-walkin' her dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how the walk the dog
C'mon now, c'mon, c'mon.

2. Asked her mama for fifteen cent
See the elephant jump the fence
He jumped so high he touched the sky
Never got back till the fourth of July.

[Spoken:]
Mary, Mary, quite contrary
Tell me, how does your garden grow?
You got silver bells and you got cockle shells
Pretty maids all in a row.

[Coda:]
Ohh, oh-oh
Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'
Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'
Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'
Oh yeah.

If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how the walk the dog
Ohh, oh-oh-woh
J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-jes' a-walkin'
J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-jes' a-walkin'
Ohh, oh-oh-woh.
