Doggie’s Tricks

What’s this coming? Baby, hark!
It’s the doggie—hear him bark—
Bow, wow, wow, wow—
Don’t you frighten Baby now!

Pussy hears him. See her hide,
Now her eyes are open wide:
Meouw, Meouw—sptisss, sptisss!
Oh how angry pussy is!

Go ‘way, doggie—run off, quick;
Moonie cow has found your stick—
Moo, moo, moo, moo;
Moonie cow is calling you.

Now he’s off. He’s in the yard,
All the sheep are running hard.
Ba-a, ba-a, ba-a, ba-a!
(What a naughty dog you are!)

Up, old rooster! doggie’s coming;
He will catch you—see him running!
Ech-ka cock-a-doodle doo—
Go ‘way, dog! Who cares for you?

Now he’s at the ducks—O look!
See them waddle to the brook.
Quack! quack! quack! quack!
Doggie cannot drive them back.

Turkey gobbler, chase him now;
Chase him, turkeys! Bow, wow, wow!
Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble!
Bow, wow, wow—gobble, gobble!

Sting him, bees! The naughty doggie!
Jump upon him, great big froggie!
Buzz, buzz, gluck, gluck:
Now, old doggie, where’s your pluck?

There, they’ve bothered you enough—
And you’re sorry, poor old Buff?
Bow, wow, wow, wow,
Come and play with Baby now.
