Walked into a Texas roadhouse bar 

me and my dog Woody

He’s my best thick and thin friend

Bartender says what you drinking

                      

I said someday he’s gona break my heart

Let’s make him happy while he’s living

Let’s have a bowl of beer before we move along

And live the life of a dog 


Break Tag—


Walked into a Georgia country bar

Me and my new dog Ben

Found him sittin by the roadside waiting

Bartender says what you having


I said my friend and I are awful dry

And beer ain’t gonna cut it

We’ll have bowl of wine before we move along

And live the life of a dog

       

And all the boys around the bar 

help me sing this song

Bout bowls of whiskey wine and beer

And living the life of a dog


Break-- C Am F C x 2


Now I’m sitting outside of a Boston bar

With my new best friend Buddy

Bartender says we don’t serve dogs

So he put us out back in the alley

                 

I said it sure has been a mighty long ride

Need something to wash off the road

Let’s have a bowl of whiskey before we move along

And live the life of a dog


And all the boys back in the alley 

helped me  sing this song

Bout bowls of whiskey wine and beer

And living the life of a dog

     

And here’s to Woody Buddy and Ben 

may they rest in piece one and all

And here’s to bar room friends and roaming free        

And living the life of a dog

  • Ooh it's on! Battle of the bards!

    Well this is strong too, but very different feel.

    I like how the beer, whiskey and wine give structure to the song.

    And a nice play on a "dog's life".

    Good stuff!

  • Well, I have a soft spot for bar room songs. I'm not sure what that tells you (!) but I really enjoyed this caper. Indeed, here's to Woody, Buddy and Ben!!😀

  • Love it, Stoney! At last! A DOG drinkin' song!!!

    Kudos,

    your friend in dogs,
