Hey baby I'm here to tell you about yourself
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog, scratchin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog baby, scratchin' all the time

You ain't nothin' but a hond dog boby, scratchin' all the time
Well, you ain't never, you ain't never caught no rabbits 
You ain't no friend of mine
