Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, back
Dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High hose, tip to toes
She broke the needle and she gets low
[Verse 2]
Walking the dog
I'm just-a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, now, come on
[Verse 3]
I asked her mother for fifteen cents
I see you ever jumped the fence
I jumped so high
Touched the skies
Didn't get back till a quarter to five
[Verse 4]
Walking the dog
I'm just-a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, come on now
[Verse 5]
Now, tell me, Mary
What's your twelve?
How does your garden grow?
What with silver bells
And cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row
[Verse 6]
Walking the dog
I'm just-a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, now, come on
[Verse 7]
Baby, back
Dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High hose, tip to toes
She broke the needle and she gets low
[Verse 8]
Walking the dog
I'm just-a walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, now, come on
[Verse 9]
Ah yeah
A-j- j- j- j- j- j- j- j-
Just a-walking
A-j- j- j- j- j- j- j- j-
Just a-walking
A-j- j- j- j- j- j- j- j-
Just a-walking
[Verse 10]
Now, if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, now, come on
[Verse 11]
Yeah, if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Come on, now
[Verse 12]
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
