The Lyrics
I just can't help retrieving
When she aims up slow and careful
With her double-barreled shotgun
At a flock of ducks she follows in her sights
And I just can't help retrieving
When geese flying drop beside me
And my jaw squeezes their feathers oh so tight
She cries, "Good girl! Come on and play!"
She cries, "Good girl! Come on and play!"
...she gives me love and praise...
I just can't help retrieving
When she spins and throws my Frisbee
And it seems so small and helpless
When my cuspids close around it like a vise
And I just can't help retrieving
When she's whispering my pet-name
And she gives me tasty doggy treats so nice
That girl I gladly will obey (That girl I gladly will obey)
That girl I gladly will obey
...for all my doggy days...
( --- instrumental --- )
...for all my doggy days...
(I just can't help retrieving)
(I just can't help retrieving)
(I just can't help retrieving)
When she aims up slow and careful
With her double-barreled shotgun
At a flock of ducks she follows in her sights
And I just can't help retrieving
When geese flying drop beside me
And my jaw squeezes their feathers oh so tight
She cries, "Good girl! Come on and play!"
She cries, "Good girl! Come on and play!"
...she gives me love and praise...
I just can't help retrieving
When she spins and throws my Frisbee
And it seems so small and helpless
When my cuspids close around it like a vise
And I just can't help retrieving
When she's whispering my pet-name
And she gives me tasty doggy treats so nice
That girl I gladly will obey (That girl I gladly will obey)
That girl I gladly will obey
...for all my doggy days...
( --- instrumental --- )
...for all my doggy days...
(I just can't help retrieving)
(I just can't help retrieving)
(I just can't help retrieving)
