I'M WALKING THE DOG
(Cliff Grimsley / Tex Grimsley)

Webb Pierce - 1953
Bill Anderson - 1965



 
I'm a-walkin' the dog and I'm never blue
I'm a-walkin' the dog, ain't thinkin' 'bout you
I don't need no one to tie me down
I'm a-walkin' the dog and paintin' the town

Such an easy life I never knew
Since the day that I left you
I'm a carefree lad and I've seen the light
And I'm a-walkin' the dog all day and all night

(Instrumental Break)

Such an easy life I never knew
Since the day, honey, I left you
Well, I'm a carefree lad and I've seen the light
And I'm a-walkin' the dog all day and all night
And I'm a-walkin' the dog all day and all night
