The Dog Song Lyrics

That sounds like a rabbit-dog I believe that's a bird-dog Oh that's an old civil-rights chaser Lord, Lord I know that's a coon-dog Talking ´bout a white dog Talking ´bout a black dog Talking ´bout a rabbit-dog Talking ´bout a coon-dog All them dogs, all them dogs All them dogs Lordy, Lordy All them dogs Well why can't we sit un' the apple tree You walk, walk with me You talk, talk with me Well why don't you hold my hand and tell me You understand now can't you see You and me oh yes We'll be so happy Sit on the apple tree My little doggy was a playing one day Down in the meadow by a bundle of hay Another little doggy well he come along Said let's get together and eat this bone Now why can't we sit on the apple tree My little doggy started jumping around Said let's take a trip to the heart of town The other little doggy well he made a face Said I don't trust the members of the human race Now why can't we sit on the apple tree My little doggy said he would go Down a town to see what was so He stayed all day till the sky got dark Run at home and he started to bark Well why can't we sit on the apple tree He said you won't believe the news I bring I saw some march and I heard some sing Some was a yelling and a throwing stones Wherever I did see weren't sharing any bones Now why can't we sit on the apple tree
