"How Come My Dog Don't Bark" lyrics

"How Come My Dog Don't Bark"

How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?
He wacks his tail and lays down on the ground
Well, somebody better tell me now what's been going down
How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?

Well, he chewed up the milkman
And he dang near killed the postman
Chased the salesman all the way to Timbuktu
Uncle Bill's in California
Cousin Will sick with pnumonia
Yeah, and that don't leave no one but me and you

How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?
He wacks his tail and lays down on the ground
Well, somebody better tell me now what's been going down
How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?

Well, who's been choppin' the kindling?
Yeah, and who's been paintin' the fences?
Hey, and who's been sittin' in my favorite seat?
There appears to be some problems
And good buddy, I think you've got them
'Cause that mangy hound just laid down at your feet

How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?
He wacks his tail and lays down on the ground
Well, somebody better tell me now what's been going down
How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?

Yeah, somebody better tell me now what's been going down
How come my dog don't bark when you come 'round?
