Bear Tales...A Dog

 
A Dog
aileen fisher

If you didn't have a dog
(Cause everyone should)
And you knew they were fun,
Then, of course, you would.

If you DON'T have a dog
(or at least until)
Keep asking after one,
Then, of course, you will

I have a dog...
And he's black as night,
But you can have one,
If you want, that's white.

Or you can have one
That's as brown as wood,
But you ought to have a dog
(Cause everyone should).
