DOGS POEM



We sailed up the Nile, we'd gone for a while
my Gypsy and Finnie and Gus Gus and me.


We sailed right along on our lips was a song
and our hearts, they were so full of glee


We saw great big birds and we said not a word
for fear they would see us you see
'Cause we are stranges here, we were plum out of Beer
my Gypsy and Finnie and Gus gus and me.


And Finnie kept watch and Gypsy slept in and Gus Gus
he guarded you see…..
Cause birds would attack and never bring back the big jelly sandwich to me
And onward we rode avoiding a toad
My Gypsy and Finnie and Gus Gus and me....


The weather was clear but a big cloud hung near where lightning and thunder there be.
And rain drops fall down and we feared we might drown in our small ship way out on the sea.
So we turned right around and everyone frowned as the rain pelted on us you see..........
And we sped right along no one singing a song
My Gypsy and Finnie and Gus Gus and me...


We rounded the bend and came home again
with happiness there's gonna' to be..
And Missie came out and said with a shout
''Where the hell have you been'' not showing a grin to
My Gypsy and Finnie and Gus Gus and me


''You aint comin' in 'cause you'r soaked to the skin''
''on my floor you aint gonna be''


An umbrella she tossed out the door, it was lost
and shivering under were we..
With the rain pouring down we were wearing a frown
My Gypsy and Finnie and Guss Guss and me



So outside we stand with umbrella in hand and the rain drippin' over you see
The adventure was done and we'd had lots of fun
My Gypsy and Finnie and Gus Gus and me.....
