Lyrics
You see him coming down the street
Long ears flapping on the breeze
Wagging at the folks he meets
That's Mr. Dog
He's too aloof to bark a lot
He's not too cool. Not too hot
You can hear his paws go pitter pot
That's Mister Dog
He strides around the neighborhood
Like a boulevardier
A Cocker Spaniel Carey Grant
Mr. Dog is on his way
You see him coming down the block
His stride's a 4/4 Bebop clock
Lookin' good and lookin' sharp
That's Mister Dog
