Treat Me Like Your Dog by Lonnie Brooks

Move over Rover, I′m movin' my clothes back in
(I thought a dog was a man′s best friend
Why're you always barkin' when I walk in?)

Treat me baby, treat me like you treat that dog
Won′t you treat me baby, treat me like you treat that dog
You know it′s a shame he gets treated better than a man

You take him for his morning walk
You kiss and try to make him talk
You fix the food that he likes
Let him out he comes right back
Treat me baby, treat me like you treat that dog

You ride him in your Cadillac
You fix him the steak that he likes
You even clip his own nails
Then you go and shampoo his tail
You treat me like that I'll follow you everywhere


(Solo)

You catch him takin′ a nap
Lyin' down in her flat
500 dollars reward
For the first one to take him home
Better look out Rover - got the dog catchers on your tail

Let him sleep in your bed
Wake up rubbin′ his head
Move over, Rover, it's just me instead
You know it′s a cryin' shame he gets treated better than a man
Move over Rover, the dog catcher's on your tail

Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
You better look out Rover, the dog catcher′s on your trail


Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
Move over, Rover
You better look out Rover, the dog catcher′s on your trail
