Sammy The Dog Has Learned To Play Trombone Lyrics

Sammy The Dog Has Learned To Play Trombone lyrics

The newspapers wrote him up, now his name`s on everybody`s lips
Mrs. Culpepper`s dog`s a big band enthusiast
He`s a pedigree with a minor key
He`s a canine with a C sharp nine
Sammy the dog has learned to play trombone
He starts blowing at midnight, wakes up the whole neighborhood
He`s worse than a cat fight, but no one minds `cause he sounds so good
He won`t fetch a stick or lick your hand
He loves Spike Jones and Dixieland
Sammy the dog has learned to play trombone

Call the National Enquirer... they`ll pay cash for an interview
Call up Johnny Carson... Oprah Winfrey just won`t do

In L.A. and London, the critics are all falling down
The next great pop superstar`s a two foot tall basset hound
He`s a drop out from pet school
Now he`s top dog where the cats are cool
Sammy the dog has learned to play trombone

He`s got a wirehair terrier meets him at the backstage door
He loves champagne and heroin...it`s not a dog`s life anymore
He`s on the cover of Rolling Stone
He`s got movie offers on the phone
Sammy the dog has learned to play trombone
