[The intro is a lick from Felix Mendelssohn's, "Wedding March."]

Baby back, dressed in black.

Silver buttons all down her back.
High, low, tipsy toe.
She broke a needle and she can't sew.


Walkin' the dog,
Jes' a-walkin' her dog.

If you don't know how to do it,
I'll show you how the walk the dog.
[Whistle.]

C'mon now, c'mon, c'mon.

Asked her mama for fifteen cent.

See the elephant jump the fence.
He jumped so high he touched the sky,
Never got back till the fourth of July.


Walkin' the dog,
Jes' a-walkin' her dog.

If you don't know how to do it,
I'll show you how the walk the dog.
[Whistle.]

C'mon now, c'mon, c'mon.

[Spoken:]

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
Tell me, how does your garden grow?
You got silver bells and you got @@#!le shells,

[Sung:]
Pretty maids all in a row.


Walkin' the dog,
Jes' a-walkin' the dog.
If you don't know how to do it,

Show you how the walk the dog.
[Whistle.]
C'mon now, c'mon, c'mon.


Ohh, oh-oh,
Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'

Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'
Jest, a-jes', a-jes' a-walking'
Oh yeah.

If you don't know how to do it,
I'll show you how the walk the dog.
Ohh, oh-oh-woh.

J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-jes' a-walkin'.
J-J-J-J-J-J-J-J-jes' a-walkin'.
[Fade.]

Ohh, oh-oh-woh.
