Hand For The Hog

Well I always heard, but I ain't too sure

That a man's best friend is a mangey cur

I kinda favor the hog myself

How 'bout a hand for the hog?

Say a hog ain't nothin' but a porky thing

Little fork-ed feet with a nosey ring

Pickle them feet, folks

How 'bout a hand for the hog?

If you took the notion, I bet

A good hog would make a helluva pet

You could teach him to ride and hunt

You could clean him up and let him sit up front

Di-di-de, di-di-de, di-di-de, di-di-de doo

In the scheme of things, the way things go

You might get bit by the old Fido

But not that gentle porker friend

How 'bout a hand for the hog?

Fella and a hog had a comedy act

Fella was terrible, as a matter of fact

That hog was a funny sucker, though

How 'bout a hand for the hog?

If you took the notion, I bet

You could teach a hog to smoke a cigarette

Well it might take a little bit of time

But, hell, what's time to a hog?

The way I see it, it looks like this

Either you ain't or either you is

A true blue lover of the swine, folks

How 'bout a hand for the hog?

Diddle-lit, diddle-lit, diddle-lit, diddle-lit

Do-do-do-do-doo

Thank you!
