Lap dog lap dog where you gonna go?
If I put you out in the rain and snow
If I put you out in the rain and snow
Where the sun dont shine and the cold wind blow
Lap dog lap dog who you gonna see?
When you look in the mirror and you dont' see me
When the face in the mirror just makes you cry
On the corner as the cars go by...
Someone you can rely on
Someone you can rely on
Someone you could be there with
Someone you could do that with
Someone like me
Lap dog lap dog you should come home
A little lap dog wasn't meant to roam
A little lap dog was meant to lay
By the fire and sleep all day
