Lyrics
Oh me, oh my
He barks all day and night.
Here comes Wags, my dog Wags
He eats so much as his tummy drags.
Oh me, oh my
He barks all day and night.
He runs around and digs the ground.
He plays with bones and he makes this sound.
Oh me, oh my
He barks all day and night.
I love Wags so much that I pat his head.
But all night long, I hear him bark
While I'm lying in my bed.
I can't sleep, I want to sleep.
He'll stop barking if I give him something to eat.
Oh me, oh my. He barks all day and night.
I love Wags so much that I pat his head.
But all night long, I hear him bark
While I'm lying in my bed.
Here comes Wags, my dog Wags
He eats so much as his tummy drags.
Oh me, oh my
He barks all day and night. (x10)
Trivia
- The line "He eats so much as his tummy drags" is similar to the line "He eats so much that his tummy sags" from the song "My Dog Rags".
