Slim Dusty Aussie Dog House Blues
Well I built myself a doghouse,
Lined it out with fur,
So I can go and hide myself
Well away from her,
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
Well I've even made it sound proof,
It's as silent as a tube,
So I can go and hide myself,
And howler at the moon,
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
Well I'm wonderin' what's she done,
But I dares not go and see,
I guess she must be talking
Cause these ears are burnin' me,
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
[Instrumental]
Well for ten years we been married,
It's been, oh, so full of bliss,
It must be 1984 since I had my last kiss
I got the doghouse blues
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
Yeah the children won't come near me
Mumma says the dog will bite,
So I just sit alone
And I just howl all night
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
Yeah I built myself a doghouse,
Lined it out with fur
So I can go and hide myself
Well away from her,
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
[Instrumental]
I got the doghouse blues,
Those Aussie doghouse blues.
