"My Dog And I Are Very Close" (Little Ogden is a big, big love) My dog and I are very close. He guards me like no other, Which about describes how he And I treat one another. He's smart, he understands Most everything I say, From our first "Good morning, love" To "It's time to hit the hay." But what I don't understand Is him window-sitting, looking out And his constant "Woof, woof, woof." What the heck is that about? I try to tell him nothing's there, Or, if there is, I, for one, can't see it. So please to stop the low "Woof, woof." If someone's there, so be it. But still the "Woof, woof, woof" goes on And that rascal won't translate While I get up a thousand times To see who's at the gate. Oh, sure, it's darn good exercise, But I often wish he'd quit, Until I think how lonely life would be Without him___ And all I did was sit.
