How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
The one with the waggley tail.
How much is that doggie in the window? (Bark! Bark!)
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.

 

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 read in the paper there are robbers, (Roof! Roof!)
With flashlights that shine in the dark.
My love needs a doggie to protect him, (Roof! Roof!)
And scare them away with one bark.
