The Doggie In the Window
Patti Page
Words and Music by Bob Merrill
Peaked at # 1 in 1953
Chorus
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! Arf!)*
The one with the waggley tail
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! Arf!)*
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
Chorus
I read in the paper there are robbers **(roof! Roof!)**
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 fishies
He can't take a goldfish for a walk
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! Arf!)*
The one with the waggley tail
How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! Arf!)*
I do hope that doggie's for sale
I do hope that doggie's for sale
Transcriber's note: "*(arf! arf!)*" sounds like a small dog, perhaps Pekingese. **"**(roof!
Roof!)**" is a bigger dog, maybe a German Shepherd.
