Lyrics Dog House - John Conlee

Spoken: This is about a place all of us guys know all about.
It's a little place, out back, norally. And we spend time in it from time to time. This is all about the "dog house."

The mans in the moon, and the cats in the cradle, and I'm in the dog house.
It never would have happened if my best friend wasn't such a loud mouth,
She's heard things that she don't like about my nights out.
Now she's on me like an old cheap suit, I'm in the dog house.

Well the dogs eatin' good and he don't care,
And I'm chewin' bones in the cold night air,
The whole thing seems just a little unfair,
There he sits in my favorite chair.

Whoever said they was man's best friend, had it all wrong,
If she finds out you've been running with the pack you'll be dog gone.
She says she's got a bone to pick,
Should I sit up and beg, should I fetch a stick,
I can't stay here scratchin' fleas and ticks, in the dog house.

Well, the dogs eatin' good and he don't care,
If I'm chewin' bones in the cold night air,
The whole thing seems just a little unfair,
There he sits in my favorite chair.

(Ah, pick it now boys)

I can tell matters are gettin' real bad, I bit the mailman,
I been chasin' cars up and down the street instead of women,
The dog and my wife are gettin' mighty thick,
Lookin' through the window just makes me sick,
This ol' dog better learn a new trick,
I'm in the dog house.

Well, the dog is eating good and he don't care,
If I'm chewin' bones in the cold night air,
The whole thing seems just a little unfair,
There he sits in my favorite chair.

The mans in the moon, and the cats in the cradle and I'm in the dog house,
It never would have happened if my best friend wasn't such a loud mouth,
She's heard things that she don't like about my nights out,
Now she's on me like an ol' cheap suit, I'm in the dog house.
