I know the day you left, you said, "Let's never talk again"
But I'm not calling for myself, I'm calling you, for them
Our little ones who wait at home, are broken and upset
And though they don't remember much, they can't seem to forget

Chorus 1:
The dogs, they really miss you
They're different since you said goodbye
They brood, they pout, they feel put out
If they could speak, they'd tell you how
They're too down to play around
They've hardly touched their meals
The dogs, they really miss you
And I know just how they feel

Bridge 1:
Their tails won't wag, their hearts won't heal,
they blame themselves that you're a stray
They're sorry that you felt tied down, and never learned to stay
Molly's nose is warm and dry, since she sat and watched you pack

Bridge 2:
And scooter's just a basket case, he won't return my calls
His squeaky toy lies silent, he's lost interest in his balls

Chorus 2:
The dogs, they really miss you
They're not themselves since you're not here
They sleep all day, watch TV all night
They drink way too much beer
They've seen Old Yeller forty times
They bathe less than they should
The dogs, they've stopped their poker games
Hoping you'll come home for good

You know how they hate to beg, but the dogs are really blue
Because they really miss you, and you know that I do too!
Wa-wa-wa-ooooh
