Your best friend is your cat or your dog

Your horse or your hog



Your cat may scratch or want to play

When you're not in the mood

But your cat will never turn its back on you



Your dog may bite or chase you around

But your dog will be there when you're feeling down



Your horse may nip you or try to knock you off his back

But your horse will never pretend he's something he's not

No, he'll never do that



Your hog may eat you out of house and home

But one thing's sure, you'll never be alone



When you think you've really found a friend

Prove it to yourself, test him



Some friends say they'll stick by you through thick and thin

When things are going smooth, they are always right beside you

But when things start going rough

Friends that say they'll be there never show up



Your pet won't do that

He'll be right there

You can tell your pet your every thought, your every care



Your best friend is your cat or your dog

Your horse or your hog

(Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow)

Some friends ask your advice on a matter

You tell them what you think and what you feel

But what do they do?

They turn their backs on you



If you don't give them the answer they want to hear

They say you're wrong, you're just filling their ears



Your best friend is your cat or your dog

Your horse or your hog

So when you feel lonely and blue

Don't turn to someone who won't help you

But go, go to your pet

It makes no difference what's troubling you

Your pet will always be there to comfort you
