Walkin' the Dog
my name is A.C. an' I live on this block
an' every ev'nin' I go walkin' the dog
eleven-thirty an' we're doin' the rounds
since seven years we've 'bin patrolin' this town
know ev'ry lamp-post, every hole in the ground
guess you could say, know all the Jokers an' Clowns
know every street name, every name on the streets
the local hookers an' the lawmen called Pete
across the park the hobe sleeps on his bench
he'd use the subway if he had any sense
kids in bushes tryin' not to be seen
an' twilight walkers never missin' a thing
walkin the dog
an asphalt cowboy got a dog an'no horse
his name is "Razor" an' he's sharper than most
we share a three-roomed with "American-Jean"
she's my woman an' she keeps the place clean
an' every ev'nin' I go walkin' the dog
eleven-thirty an' we're doin' the rounds
since seven years we've 'bin patrolin' this town
know ev'ry lamp-post, every hole in the ground
guess you could say, know all the Jokers an' Clowns
know every street name, every name on the streets
the local hookers an' the lawmen called Pete
across the park the hobe sleeps on his bench
he'd use the subway if he had any sense
kids in bushes tryin' not to be seen
an' twilight walkers never missin' a thing
walkin the dog
an asphalt cowboy got a dog an'no horse
his name is "Razor" an' he's sharper than most
we share a three-roomed with "American-Jean"
she's my woman an' she keeps the place clean
