A homeless person compares his life to that of some beloved pets

lyrics

Dog N' Cat Blues

I seen a dog wearin' boots while I walk with holes in my shoes
I seen a dog wearin' boots while I walk with holes in my shoes
Rover look warmer
What can I do?

I seen a pooch in a house with a family warm and asleep
I seen a pooch in a house feelin' safe, I live on these streets
Rover look warmer
I hang my head and weep, that's right

I seen a cat in the alley lookin' skinny as he can be
Scratchin' at the garbage, kitty look hungry
Yeah, that cat look a lot like me

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what can I do?
Rover looks warmer, I got the dog n' cat blues
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, what can I do?
Yeah Rover looks warmer, I got the dog n' cat blues
I got the dog n' cat blues
I got the dog n' cat blues
I got the dog n' cat blues
