THE PUPPY SONG

(Harry Nilsson)

Dreams are nuthin’ more than wishes
And a wish is just a dream you wish to come true

If only I could have a puppy
I'd call myself so very lucky
Just to have some company
To share a cup of tea with me

I'd take my puppy everywhere
La la la la la, I wouldn’t care
We would stay away from crowds
And signs that said no dogs allowed
I know, we know he’d never bite me
Oh no, we know he’d never bite me

If only I could have a friend
To stick with me until the end
To walk along beside the sea
And share a bit of moon with me

I'd take my friend most everywhere
La la la la la, I wouldn’t care
And we would stay away from crowds
Signs that said no friends allowed

I know we would be so happy together
Yodelly-odelly-odelly-oh!
We would be so happy together
Yodelly-odelly-odelly-oh!

Dreams are nuthin’ more than wishes
And a wish is just a dream you wish to come true

(Your wish will come true
Your wish will come true)

Repeat last verse three times
