Dog bones






Dog Bones toasting by an open fire
Doggies sleeping nose to nose
Yule-tide carols sung by a cat choir
Doggies dressed like Eskimos.

Everybody knows some kibble and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Sleepy pups with their eyes drooping low
Still find it hard to sleep tonight.

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded doggie toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every puppy dog is gonna spy
To see if Ruby really knows how to fly.

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To dogs from one to ninety-two
Although it's been barked many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you.

Snowball's on a satin pillow here
Harry cuddling up it seems
Gussie is skating with his Snicker's dear
While Butchy leads the hockey team.

How the Time has flown while we've been having lots fun
Food was great and friendship very fine
Christmas cheer shared with every one
And Tanner brought a lot of wine

Asta and sweet Stanley taking Stella round the pond
Ike and Martha cuddle really close
Newfs and Huskies never missing the sun
And Whippets bundled to the nose

All the doggies know the pawty now is almost done
Time to board Aire Ruby soon
Huggies and kisses go to everyone
And one last chase beneath the moon.

So we are barking up this simple phrase
For doggies one to ninety two
Although it's been woofed, many times, Many ways
Merry Christmas to you
