I'm walking the dog and I'm never blue
I'm walking the dog I ain't thinkin' bout you
I don't need no one to tie me down
I'm walking the dog and I'm paintin' the town
Such an easy life I never knew until the day that I left you
Well I'm a carefree lad that seen the light
I'm walking the dog all the day and all night
[ fiddle - steel ]
Well I'm full of strenght I just can't grow old
I got a one track mind so I've been told
But I'm fancy free I don't worry no how
And I'm walking the dog all the law allow
Such an easy life I never knew I can't believe it's really [bad word] 
Well I'm a carefree lad that seen the light
And I'm walking the dog all the day and all night.
