All the songs on this CD were ispired by our doggies Gandalf and Gizmo. It’s A Dog’s Life

Well now early in the mornin’ I woke myself snorin’ loudly
I stretched and I yawned, licked myself and farted proudly
I gave my dad a big wet kiss, it don’t get much better than this
It’s a dog’s life

I’m ready for my food now, don’t forget a treat that’s yummy
If you do a good job, I may let you scratch my tummy
And then I’ll fetch my favorite toy, so I can hear you say “Good Boy”
It’s a dog’s life

One by one – look by look – I taught you everything
All I gotta do is stare long enough to get whatever I need
It’s a dog’s life – Yea Yea

Guitar Solo – (Mike Miller)

I wag my tail and I tilt my head – You’ll do anything
You may be the big dog – We both know who’s the king
It’s a dog’s life

I don’t understand why, you only shake the hand to meet ‘em
You know I’d rather sniff a crotch and try to hump their leg to greet ‘em
I run around naked all day, I sleep and eat and sleep and play

It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life

It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life

It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life

It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life

It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life - It’s a dog’s life

Just Take Me Walkin'

Our boys love to walk. That seems to be their favorite thing in life! Walks are like heroine to dogs. JUST TAKE ME WALKIN’
Words and music by Bobby Zee & Zoe


Just take me walkin’
I want to go walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Please take me walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Cause I’ve been in this house all day
Just take me walkin’
Some place where I can lift my leg
Just take me walkin’
And I won’t chew the brand new couch
Just take me walkin’
Then I won’t be such a grouch
Take me outside
Oh I swear I won’t be naughty
Just take me walkin’
So I can find a tree to hike my leg and potty
Just take me walkin’
You know I’m ready to explode
Just take me walkin’
I need to launch another load
Just take me walkin’
Oh please I promise to be good
Just take me walkin’
So I can leave my mark in the hood
Take me outside where the grass is nice and green
Just take me walkin’
I’m a four legged, butt sniffin’ peeing machine
I can be your best friend if you want me too
Or leave you a gift for the bottom of your shoe
Just take me walkin so I can prance and strut
Some place where I can sniff some butt
Just take me walkin’
Well here’s that look you can’t turn down
Just take me walkin’
So I can drag you all around
Just take me walkin’
That’s what I love to do, yeah
Just take me walkin’
Like Cesar says “Who’s walking who?”
Take me outside where the grass is nice and green
Just take me walkin’
I’m a four legged, butt sniffin’ peeing machine
I can be your best friend if you want me too
Or leave you a gift for the bottom of you shoe, yeah
Just take me walkin’ where I can prance and strut
Some place I can sniff some butt
That’s what I’m talkin about
Just take me walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Just take me walkin’
Well I can be your best friend if you want me too
Or leave you a gift for the bottom of your shoe, yeah
Just take me walkin, so I can prance and strut
Some place where I can sniff a butt or two or three
Just take me walkin’
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
Just take me walkin’
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
Just take me walkin’
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
Just take me walkin’
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
I want to walk with you
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
Say walk
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is
Let’s walk
Stop, whiz, what a relief it is

My Best Friend

Bobby Zee & Zoe
You all know the saying about dogs being "Man's Best Friend". Well this kind of unconditional love sure does feel great!! My Best Friend

My best friend
You’re my best friend – Through thick and thin
You’re my best friend – Um and I love you

Wherever I go you follow – I’m never alone
You always get so excited – when I come home
Your eyes always smile and tell me who you adore
I’ve never been loved like this before

You’re my best friend – Through thick and thin
You’re my best friend – Um and I love you

You love to go out exploring - in the backyard
You’ll walk anywhere I take you - no path is too hard
You always make me so happy – who could want more
Then to find you there to love me at my door?

You’re my best friend – Through thick and thin
You’re my best friend – Oh and I love you

Me for you – You for me – My best friend forever

You’re my best friend – Through thick and thin
You’re my best friend – Um and I love you

You’re my best friend – Through thick and thin
You’re my best friend – Um and I love you

Chiquita Bonita

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
Gandalf has a girlfriend, Chiquita. Chiquita's mommy is a very nice hispanic lady named Sandy. Sandy named her little girl Chiquita. Chiquita is very pretty (or bonita in Spanish), so Sandy calls her "Chiquita Bonita"! We thought it was appropriate to write a Salsa song as a "Love Song" tribute from Gandalf to Chiquita Bonita. Chiquita Bonita

Love, it feels so good
When she’s with me I’m the big dog in the Hood.
Joy, inside my heart
There’s nothing that can keep us apart
Oh here she comes

My Chiquita Bonita
There’s nobody sweeta
My Chiquita Bonita
Just my baby and Me
In harmony.

When, she comes down the street
I get so excited that I almost peed
Soon, she’ll be next to me
Together we’ll laugh and dance and we will sing.
Oh here she comes

My Chiquita Bonita
There’s nobody sweeta
My Chiquita Bonita
Just my little baby and Me
In harmony.

Doggie Dream

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
My dog dreams a lot. You can tell from the sounds he makes and how he twitches and moves during his dream that he is off on some wild and fantastic adventure. My little Maltese male thinks he is a big tough alpha dog, so I am sure that in his dreams he runs into a pack of wild dogs who approach him menacingly and he stands up to them with his meanest growls and they all run away whimpering with their tail between their legs. I'm quite sure he believes that is what would happen (in his dreams!). Doggie Dream
(or “Deep in a Doggie Dream”)

I’m Runnin’ all through the woods
My legs are flyin’ fast
There’s somebody's chasin’ me
I don’t know how long I can last
It’s dark out here, it’s so hard to see
The moonlight through the trees
Deep in a Doggie Dream . . . Deep in a Doggie Dream

The trail stopped at the river
With no escape in sight
The big wild dogs had finally caught me
I just had to turn and fight
When they heard me do my meanest growl
They ran off with a howl
Deep in my Doggie Dream . . . Deep in my Doggie Dream

I don’t know how I got here
My Hearts Beatin’ fast
Is this the future?
Or is this the past
I just wanna go home
And wake up from this Doggie Dream
From this Doggie Dream

Dog Day Afternoon

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
"Dog Day Afternoon" seemed like the perfect title for a blues song about a lazy day in the life of a dog. Dog Day Afternoon

Kickin’, Laying on my back
Listenin’ to my favorite tune
Yes I’m chewin’ on my favorite snack
in the middle of the living room.
Yes I’m Kickin’, cause it’s a dog day afternoon

I'm not lazy. I just don't care.
I’m tired of playing fetch and kids pulling my hair
I’m just wanna lay around and watch cartoons
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon

Kickin’, sittin’ on my ass
my get up and go left too soon.
Chillin’, lying on the grass
Lickin’ ice cream off the family spoon,
Yes I’m Kickin’, cause it’s a dog day afternoon

I’ve been road hard and put away wet,
I’ve seen things you should never show your pet
I’m just wanna lay around and watch cartoons
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon

SOLO

I'm not lazy. I just don't care.
I’m tired of playing fetch and kids pulling my hair
I’m just wanna lay around and watch cartoons
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon
I’m movin’ at the speed of Dark,
Cause it’s a dog day afternoon

Boo Boo's Bossa Nova

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
Gandalf looks a bit like he is dancing and prancing when we go for a walk. He swings his cute little doggie butt like he is dancing a Bossa Nova! Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova

Dance through life without a care
Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova
I take him with me everywhere
He always want’s to go
Walkin’ through the woods or drivin’ in my car
It really doesn’t matter where we are

Prancin’ proudly down the street
Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova
On little legs and happy feet
My bossa nova boy
Movin’ to the rhythm of a bossa beat
He’s my little bossa nova boy

Bow wow wow, Boo Boo’s bossa nova
Bow wow wow, My bossa nova boy
Bow wow wow – Bow wow wow
He’s my little bossa nova boy

Flute Solo – (Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova)

He loves to go outside with me
Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova
He’s got to stop at every tree
To see who else stopped by
Cutest little doggie butt swings doggie style
Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova dance of life

Shinin’ eyes and smilin’ face
Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova
He’s happy any time or place
Just to be alive (Bossa Nova boy)
I come home and he explodes in doggie style
Dancin’ on his very own cloud nine

Bow wow wow - Boo Boo’s Bossa Nova
Bow wow wow – Bossa Nova Boy
Bow wow wow – Bow wow wow
He’s my little bossa nova boy!

He's a Dog

This is kind of a 1940's Mills Brothers vibe musically. It's four part harmony is a happy tribute to our happy doggies! He’s A Dog

Go Fetch, and bring me that toy
It’s time to play with my favorite boy
Anytime, anywhere, if playing’s involved
I know he’ll be there

Cause he’s a dog
It’s all about playin’ and hangin’ out
Yea he’s a dog – he only lives for here and now
Yes he’s a dog - He’s ready to play and always devout
Yea he’s a dog and that’s what I’m talkin’ about

Piano Solo (Llew Matthews)

Cause he’s a dog
He’s always happy and ready for fun
He’s a dog – His only care is layin’ in the sun
Yea he’s a dog - He’ll run and play until the day is done
He’s a dog – He’s got a life that’s second to none

Go Fetch, and bring me that ball
Every day you always give it your all
Anytime, anywhere, if playing’s involved
I know he’ll be there

Cause he’s a dog
He’s always happy and ready for fun
He’s a dog – His only care is layin’ in the sun
Yea he’s a dog - He’ll run and play until the day is done
He’s a dog – He’s got a life that’s second to none

Go Fetch, and bring me that toy
It’s time to play with my favorite boy
Anytime, anywhere, if playing’s involved
Yea I know he’ll be there

Yea he’s a dog - He’s playin’ and hangin’ out
Whoa he’s a dog – He only lives for here and now
Yea Yea Yea - He’s a dog - Ah Always devout
He’s a dog – And that’s what I’m talkin’ about
He’s a dog - dog - dog

Soulful Eyes

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
Gandalf has a look that melts me down. He is a professional at getting me to do anything he wants with one look from his soulful eyes. Soulful Eyes

Soulful Eyes – What do you want? What are you tryin’ to tell me?
Soulful Eyes – With those soulful eyes, huh?

You open my eyes with your kisses
I wake up with a smile
Slept the whole night right beside me
We both yawn and stretch a while

Lookin’ like I need to wake up
And open the back door
Though you can’t talk your face says it all
And so much more

There’s that look again - Oh how hard you try
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

We’re off on another adventure
We’re goin’ for a drive
You always seem so happy
Just to be alive

I always know right where to find you
You’re waiting patiently
Watch my every move tellin’ me how much
You love me

There’s that look again – You want to go bye bye
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

You keep on starin’ at me with those soulful eyes
You keep on starin’ at me with those soulful eyes
You keep on starin’ at me with those soulful eyes
There’s that look again

There’s that look again - Oh how hard you try
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

There’s that look again – You want to go bye bye
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

There’s that look again - Oh what soulful eyes
There’s that look again – Go bye bye

There’s that look again - Oh how hard you try
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

There’s that look again – There’s that look again
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

There’s that look again – You want to go bye bye
There’s that look again – Soulful eyes

I Believe in Dogs

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
It's not that we don't love people and lots of other things in life, but you can always count on that unconditional love from your dog. Gandalf lives to be with me and does his best to always love me and make me happy. I Believe In Dogs

When I’m sad and blue,
I'm sure he understands.
He looks at me with those big brown eyes, and gently licks my hands.
Then He rubbed his nose on my brand new clothes,
And he peed on my favorite hat.
But God only knows I can buy more clothes, but I’ll never find a friend like that.

He’s seen it all but he don’t tell
He only wants to wish me well
He loves me more than He loves himself
That’s why,
I believe in Dogs
I believe in Dogs

You’re the first to say hello
And the first one to defend
Loyal and true, it’s just me and you, Until the very end.
Then he chewed up my bongos, pooped in the Condo
And chased down the neighbors cat.
But God only knows I can get new bongos, but I’ll never find a friend like that.

Dogs believe they’re human
Cats believe they’re God
The more I know about people
The more, the more,
I believe in Dogs
I believe in Dogs
I believe in Dogs
I believe in Dogs

You Dirty Dog

(Bobby Zee & Zoe)
March 16, 2009
Bobby Zee & Zoe
Both Gandalf and Gizmo don't like getting baths or going to the groomer. They are boys, and boys will be boys. Gandalf's groomer is a nice lady named Patricia or "Pat" for short at a great groomer called the "Dirty Dog O Mat"! You Dirty Dog

Where have you been? What’s going on?
I know that grin - You been having too much fun
What did you do? Roll in the mud?
Look at this mess - What were you thinking bud?

It’s time to clean up – It’s time to give you a bath
I’ll run the water – You’ll run and hide you dirty dog
I love my dirty dog! Love my dirty dog!

Dirt everywhere – Tracks on the floor
Mud where you scratched - your paws on the back door
Look at this streak – I told you before
It’s not cool to slide your butt across the floor

It’s time to clean up – It’s time to give you a bath
I’ll run the water – You’ll run and hide you dirty dog
I love my dirty dog! I love my dirty dog!

Your hair is too long – toenails that grew
Teeth to be cleaned – The other end too
It’s time to make an appointment with Pat
Time to get you groomed at the “Dirty Dog O Mat”
The “Dirty Dog O Mat” It’s time to give you a bath
You dirty dog!

It’s time to clean up – It’s time to give you a bath
I’ll run the water – You’ll run and hide you dirty dog
I love my dirty dog! I love my dirty dog!
Repeat and Fade

The Humane Society, The SPCA and so many wonderful animal shelters and rescue missions really need and deserve our support. This song is a tribute to the Humane Society. The Humane Society

Thanks to the Humane Society
Everyone can have a dog like me

The Humane Society saved me from anxiety
From exploitation and neglect
Since 1954, they’ve always had an open door
And treated animals with respect

I’ll be a bundle of joy if you choose me
Thanks to the Humane Society
Good time will never end if you pick me for your friend
Thanks to the Humane Society
Everyone can have a dog like me

Thanks for protecting me from suffering and cruelty
Thanks for having an affect
Since 1954, you’ve made our spirits soar
Cause you’ve been there to serve and protect

I’ll be a bundle of joy if you choose me
Thanks to the Humane Society
Good time will never end if you pick me for your friend
Thanks to the Humane Society
Everyone can have a dog like me

Solo

I’ll be a bundle of joy if you choose me
Thanks to the Humane Society
Good time will never end if you pick me for your friend
Thanks to the Humane Society
Everyone can have a dog like me

Thanks to the Humane Society
Everyone can have a dog like me

A little more um – happy as your pal
With a little more smile – and a little less growl
