Lyrics
It used to be so peaceful here at my house
With ev’ry day like ev’ry other one
But something changed the place
My life’s a merry chase
It’s not so peaceful now but it’s more fun
Refrain
Who’s the cute little pup who wakes me up
Who wants to play? Nobody but Lady
Cute as any coquette, she loves to pet
My cuddly Lady fair
Like any girl sure of her charms
She’s at your feet, then on your lap
And winds up in your arms
Oh, joy, Oh jimminy gee
It’s puppy love, you see
My Lady is the one for me
Patter
Since my Lady came here to stay
There’s more confusion than I can say
My tie, a glove, a piece of a rug
Are all inside a hole that she dug
My shoes, my shirt, my holiday suit
I find with all the rest of her loot
The bump that’s in my favorite chair
Is just a bone that’s buried in there
There isn’t a floor that hasn’t a scratch
There isn’t a rug that hasn’t a patch
But she’s here to stay, it’s always Lady’s day
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Refrain
Who’s the cute little pup who wakes me up
Who wants to play? Nobody but Lady
Cute as any coquette, she loves to pet
My cuddly Lady fair
She’ll never leave though she may roam
I merely whistle, knowing
This’ll bring her romping home
And winds up in your arms
Oh, joy, Oh jimminy gee
It’s puppy love, you see
My Lady is the one for me
Lady is the one for me
