Life can be so painful
When love has gone away
When she's gone for good
And I wish I would
Have said all I had to say
I want to live my life
With you here by my side
To walk the beach at morning
Nap at noon
To fill your bowl at night
When I would call
She'd always come to me
She shared my bed
She'd always comfort me
She was the best friend
A man could ever know
How I miss your dog
Oh, honey, how I miss your dog
I feel so blue
And I miss you too
But I really miss your dog
She was the best dog in the world
Who had a darned good-looking girl
When we werе in the mood
We would eat hеr food
And sprawl out on her floor
I don't know what went wrong
To make me sing this sad, sad song
Each time I pass the place
Where you first licked my face
I fear I can't go on
We never once
Argued the night away
She'd never leave
I just had to say, "stay"
Your leash was long
With you I could be me
How I miss your dog
Oh, honey, how I miss your dog
I feel so blue
And I miss you too
But I really miss your dog
When I would call
She'd always come to me
She shared my bed
She'd always comfort me
She was the best friend
A man could ever know
How I miss your dog
Oh, honey, how I miss your dog
I feel so blue
And I miss you too
But I really miss your dog
You know I really miss your dog
(Aw! C'mon, boy!)
Come back to me and bring your dog
(C'mon, c'mon, boy!)
