Lyrics

  1. How much is that doggie in the window?
    The one with the waggely tail
    How much is that doggie in the window?
    I do hope that doggie’s for sale
    I must take a trip to California
    And leave my poor sweetheart alone
    If he has a dog, he won’t be lonesome
    And the doggie will have a good home
  2. How much is that doggie in the window?
    The one with the waggely tail
    How much is that doggie in the window?
    I do hope that doggie’s for sale
    I read in the papers there are robbers
    With flashlights that shine in the dark
    My love needs a doggie to protect him
    And scare them away with one bark

I don’t want a bunny or a kitty
I don’t want a parrot that talks
I don’t want a bowl of little fishes
He can’t take a goldfish for walks
How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggely tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie’s for sale
