Do The Dog Lyrics - Sesame Street

Well, I got a little dance to tell you about 

A dance to make you bark, not scream and shout 

You ask what kind of dance can it possibly be 

I'll show you with the kids and Barkley 

It's called the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Yeah, get down on all fours and do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Now scoot around on the floor and do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Pretend your name is Rover 

And when you do the dog, you gotta roll over 

Now pretend that you're a dog and that you have fur 

But you're not a cat, so don't meow or purr 

Just sound like a doggie and you'll have fun 

You can bark, bark, bark 'till this song is done 

And do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

You can let out a growl and do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Now let me hear you howl and do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

The dance that no one can match 

Now pretend that you have fleas and scratch 

Scratch, scratch 

If you're feeling tired and pooped is what 

You're getting 

And you're not in the mood for any playing or petting 

Just lay on down 

But before your eyes are shut 

Turn around three times 

Like that great big mutt 

And do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Oh, do the dog 

(Ruff, ruff) 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Ruff ruff ruff ruff 

Ruff!
