Prairie Dog Lyrics

Walkin' Jim Stoltz Prairie Dog

G C
1) Out on the prairie in those wide open spaces,
G D
Sometimes I see you, those tiny little faces
G C
Back on your heels and head in the air,
G D
Barkin' a warning, I'd better beware.
G Em C
Chorus: Prairie Dog, Prairie Dog,
G C D
Barkin' louder than a big bull frog,
G Em C
You're the king of the grassland, you're one top dog,

G C D G
You're a dusty dandy, you're a prairie dog.
2) When you're dirty and you're dry, and it's hard to
cope,
You take a bath in the dust, you don't use no soap.
Your drinking water comes from the grass that you eat,
And you scratch your head with those itty-bitty feet!
(Chorus)
3) Your town is where Life abounds
With the black-footed ferret and the bobcat around,
The bison comes to visit, too.
Life is a circle, they depend on you!
Chorus)
4) You're not a canine, and you're not like rover,
But those big watchdogs, they better roll over,
You're small in size, but your impact is big;
You nourish the Earth with those tunnels that you dig!
(Final Chorus)
