The Doggie In the Window

Patti Page

Words and Music by Bob Merrill



Peaked at # 1 in 1953



CHORUS

How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*

The one with the waggley tail

How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*

I do hope that doggie's for sale



I must take a trip to California

And leave my poor sweetheart alone

If he has a dog, he won't be lonesome

And the doggie will have a good home



CHORUS



I read in the paper there are robbers **(roof! roof!)**

With flashlights that shine in the dark

My love needs a doggie to protect him

And scare them away with one bark



I don't want a bunny or a kitty

I don't want a parrot that talks

I don't want a bowl of little fishies

He can't take a goldfish for a walk



How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*

The one with the waggley tail

How much is that doggie in the window? *(arf! arf!)*

I do hope that doggie's for sale



I do hope that doggie's for sale



TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: "*(arf! arf!)*" sounds like a small dog, perhaps Pekingese. **"**(roof!

roof!)**" is a bigger dog, maybe a German Shepherd.
