I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me

I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me

If I made my dog cry like you made me cry yesterday

The neighbors all would go and call the ASPCA

I wouldn't hurt my dog like you hurt me babe

I wouldn't say those mean old things to him

If I push my little hound the way you push me around

A fightin' bitin' mean old dog would be babe

But I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me

[ steel ]

I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me babe

At least I've taken out once in a while

I wouldn't pet another dog if he was standing there

I'd hug him and I'd kiss him and I'd let him know I care

I'd give him love and the kindness all the time babe

And he'd pace me back with loyalty

Though he'll just right be oh gee he's got feelings to you see

And I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me babe

No I wouldn't treat my dog like you treat me
