Lyrics

You take great care of me
I know we both agree that
Scraps on the floor are your chore
We’d be overrun by squirrels
If you weren’t such a good girl
The mailman would walk right through our door

You’re more than a good dog
You’re a god dog
‘Cause god is dog spelled backward
When you live with the divine, you’re in heaven all the time.
There cannot be a prayer that goes unanswered

You bring back every stick I throw
You want to be everywhere I go
I am never lonesome with you by my side
When you’re with me in the car
It never feels too far
‘Cause every trip becomes a joyride

You’re more than a good dog
You’re a god dog
‘Cause god is dog spelled backward
When you live with the divine, you’re in heaven all the time
There cannot be a prayer that goes unanswered

I didn’t need those slippers
That rug was old anyway
You can take that chair – I’ll sit there later
Year after year it’s abundantly clear
Which one of us is alpha which is beta
Only you (ah-oo!!!) know my true heart
Only you love it when I fart

You’re more than a good dog
You’re a god dog
‘Cause god is dog spelled backward
When you live with a canine, you’re in heaven all the time
There cannot be a prayer that goes unanswered
