She woke up this morning,
Her dog was on her bed,
Balladeer was somewhere else,
Chasin' somethin' else instead,
Her pooch was sympathetic,
He's always by her side,
He's faithful and devoted,
Companion, friend and guide,
Ms. 'Deer, don't treat your man like a dog.

If you need protection,
If danger's lurking near,
Your mutt would give his life for you...
but if Balladeer is hangin' 'round,
Your future may be grim,
Statistics show you probly' need
Protection from him...
Ms. 'Deer...don't treat your man like a dog...

If you treat your fella,
Like he was royalty,
He'll just take ya for granted ya know..
Most males of "his" species
Don't exhibit loyalty,
They just "Tom Cat" where ever they go!

It's hard to find a human male
That's as charming as a pup,
I know some who speak and fetch,
Rollover and sit up..
Though they can do tricks for you
With charm and dignity,
and though some have great intellect,
They lack nobility..
Ms. 'Deer..don't treat your man like a dog!

Well you can pamper your puppy
He'll love ya just the same,
Unless ya got a man like me,
(and Toerag is my name)
Ms. 'Deer, don't treat your man like a dog!

So feed your dog Purina,
And take him to the vet,
Brush him when he's tangled,
And dry him when he's wet,
And if ya want a sweetie,
Who will never let ya down
Forget about old Balladeer,
ya oughtta try the pound..
Ms. 'Deer, don't treat your man like a dog!

(A Toeragged version of a very old blues song)...yall have a great weekend now ya hear?...
