I Get By With, A Little Yelp From My Friends Lyrics - Sesame Street

(background doggie singers in brackets) 

What do I do when I'm out in the yard 

And can't find where I buried my bone 

How do I feel when my dog's life is hard 

I feel sad but I'm not all alone 

Oh I get by with a little yelp from my friends 

Oh I get by with a little woof from my friends 

Yes I get by with a bow-wow from my friends 

Boy I get mad when I get in a fight 

With an itchy old flea and I lose 

And what do I do when I'm still not alright 

Even after I chew on some shoes 

Oh I get by with a little yelp from my friends 

Oh I get by with a little woof from my friends 

Yes I get by with a bow-wow from my friends 

(When you're sad we're behind ya) 

Oooooh, where can that bone be? 

(When you're mad we'll confide ya) 

I can't believe I lost to a flea! 

What do you do when you're sad or afraid 

Or you're lonely or angry or down 

Can't fetch a stick 'cause your owner's away 

And there ain't no dog yummies around 

Oh I get by with a little yelp from my friends 

Oh I get by with a little woof from my friends 

Yes I get by with a bow-wow from my friends 

Aroooo, aroooo, aroooo!
