Everybody knows I'm an easygoing guy I try to step on no-one's shoes But woman of mine you get the best of me Someday you're gonna get the news Get along little doggie, get along Get along little doggie, get along Get along little doggie If you can't get along with me When I married you We had a real good thing You didn't say a doggone word Now the honeymoon's over Like a drunk I'm sober You've got a way of getting on my nerves Will you tell me I'm wrong When you know I'm right Ain't no wonder why I stay out at night You disagree just to start a fight
Girl watch out or this dog's gonna bite Everything I do is just one big mess I really find it hard to believe So I shut my mouth and I walk away But then I just start to grit my teeth Well I compromised 'til my face was blue What in this world are we gonna do Even Sherlock Holmes couldn't find a clue To solve this mystery between me and you You'll drive me to my grave If you don't quit now I've taken all a man can take You've pushed me too far So back off now And ease on back in your place
