Hound Dog
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You ain't nothn but a hound dog, cryin all the time
You ain't nothn but a hound dog, cryin all the time.
Well you ain't never caught a rabbit,
You ain't no friend of mine.
Well you said you were high class, that was just a lie
Well you said you were high class, that was just a lie
Well you ain't never caught a rabbit,
You ain't no friend of mine.
I say YEAH!
Dalmatian, Doberman, Chihuahuahuahuahua,
Boxer, scotty, beagle, collie, poodly-doodly, doodly-doo,
A husky, no, no, you ain't no pekinese!
Good dog, bad dog, up girl, down boy!
Sit girl, roll over on the ground boy!
Doggy style heel on your knees, boy!
Chow chow Lorne Greene sees your fleas, boy!
Hey Mr. Canine, hop that gravy train line!
You're like Snoopy, you're like Goofy,
You're like Astro, you're like Pluto.
I said you're like Scooby-Doo, and Marmaduke,
And Rin Tin Tin, and Toto-too,
You're like Lassie, Checkers and Huckleberry Hound!
Repeat
Well you ain't never caught a rabbit,
You ain't no friend of mine.
OH YEAH
