Baby's back dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High ho tipsy toe
She broke the needle now she can't sew

Walking the dog
Just a-walking the dog
Well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog.

Mary Mary quite contrary
How does your garden grow
Silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row.

Walking the dog
Just a-walking the dog
Well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog.

(Sax Solo)

Hey diddle diddle
The cats got the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
He jumped so high touched the sky
Didn't come back till the fourth of July.

Walking the dog
Just a-walking the dog
Well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog.
