A Girl and Her Dog 🐶🐾

Lyrics by c c Snowden

She fell madly in love ….
when she was just two……..
with the family dog,
together, up they grew,

Her first big love affair ….
where she fell hard and fast,
She was Juliette
and her Romeo was cast!

chorus
A girl and her dog —
like peanut butter and jelly,
A classic combination
to satisfy your belly.
Diamonds and pearls….
are precious things you might get her,
But the love of a dog,
is something she would like better.

Her Romeo passed
when she was still young,
Losing that good, ole boy…..
was like getting burned then stung.

Living life all alone
felt like an empty blur,
Then along came a dog
whose love would rescue her.

chorus
A girl and her dog are like
peanut butter and jelly,
That classic combination
filling up your belly.
Diamonds and pearls are precious
things you might get her,
But the love of a dog,
is something she’d like better.

The years would pass by….
Like the chapters of a book.
It felt like time slipped away,
Stolen by a crook.

She became a wife and a mom,
A busy life on the go,
But in her grey minivan,
You’d see her dogs were in tow.

Bridge
She praises God for the dogs
and names them one by one,
For bringing light to her life,
Like the shining sun.
Diamond rings and some pearls,
are fancy things you might get her,
But the love of a dog
is something she would like better!

final chorus
All humans having a dog…
should be made mandatory,
For the love that dogs bring
To enhance our story.

hmmmmm mmmm
mmmm hmm.
Thank God for all dogs.

hmmmmmm….. mmmmm
mmmmm
