I've got me a bad dog
Yeah, he's a mean old boy.
I've got me a bad dog
He's sure a mean old boy
He won't answer when
I call him, lawd, he treats
me like a toy.

He's so ornery
I've got to chase him down
each time he roams.
He's so ornery
I've got to chase him down
each times he roams.
Seems like everytime I
turn around I'm dragging
that sorry dog home.

He know's he's a bad dog
when he eats holes in my shoes.
He know's he's a bad dog
when he eats holes in my shoes.
He just looks at me with
sad eyes that seem to say even
bad dogs get the blues.
He looks at me with
pleading eyes and says
'Even bad dogs get the blues.'

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

This reminds me of my cat Sammy at night when I put him out I have to chase him around the house first. Then when I get hold of him to put him in the cat room he tries to bite me. LOL Cats can act like this too. I truly enjoyed the read!!!

this reminds me of a dog I had...could jump over a chain link face from standing still.  I added another 4 feet to the top (and she climbed it).  I got another dog to keep her company (she taught her how to climb.) I put up an electric fence with live wires high and low.  (One climbed under and the other jumped over.)  Bad dogs...I had to round them up from the neighborhood every morn at 6 AM.  Bad dogs; doggone
