There's A Dog On the Roof - By Dan MclLhenny

There’s a dog on the roof 

There’s a dog on the roof 

I’d like to tell he’s bulletproof 

It’s not to imply this hound is aloof 

He’s just stuck up on the roof 

Maybe we should call Carole King and James Taylor  

I’d betcha they’d know what to do 

How to rescue a pup indeed in need 

It’s a puzzler I'm tellin’ you! ...'Cuz 

There’s a dog on the roof 

There’s a dog on the roof 

I’d like to tell he’s bulletproof 

It’s not to imply this hound is aloof 

He’s just stuck up on the roof 

Will the duo arrive when it’s dark 

To save the canine on a lark 

Will the trio howl at the rising moon 

Then huddle and cuddle and bark 

Life gives us a strange bunch of circumstances 

Some more difficult than others to solve 

Thank goodness we have great singer heroes 

Who help our stories evolve 

With a folk tune here and a pop song there 

Here a pop, there a tune everywhere song, song 

We hear them so much they feel like friends 

So we ask ‘em c’mon play ‘em again!   

There’s a dog on the roof 

There’s a dog on the roof 

I’d like to tell he’s bulletproof 

It’s not to imply this hound is aloof 

He’s just stuck up on the roof 

He’s just stuck up on the roof
