Bird dog you better leave my lovely-dove alone
His jokin’ ain’t so funny
(He’s a bird dog)
Hey, bird dog you’re on the wrong trail
Johnny is a joker that’s a’tryin’ to steal my baby
He tiptoed up to reach her
A very funny joker
(He’s a dog)
He’s a bird
Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own
(Ya ever heard)
Johnny sings a love song
(He’s a bird)
(He’s a bird)
(He’s a dog)
But when he jokes my honey
He sings the sweetest love song
Bird dog you better leave my lovely-dove alone
(On the prowl)
(He’s a bird dog)
(What a dog)
He’s a dog
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby
(Like a bird)
Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
But when he sings to my gal
(He’s a bird dog)
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own
Hey, bird dog get away from my chick
What he wants he can get now
(What a dog)
Hey, bird dog get away from my chick
Johnny kissed the teacher
(What a howl)
Hey, bird dog you better get away quick
To me he’s just a wolf dog
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy-love my baby
Well he’s the teacher’s pet now
(He’s a bird)
Hey, bird dog you better get away quick
Hey, bird dog you’re on the wrong trail
