Maybe Mae, dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High. Low, tip to toe
She broke a needle and she can't sew
Walkin' the dog
Just a-walkin' the dog
If you don't know how to do it
Let me show you how to walk the dog
Ask my mama for fifteen cents
To see a elephant jump the fence
He jumped so high, he reached the sky
Ain’t comin’ back ‘til the fourth of July
Walkin' the dog
Just a-walkin' the dog
If you don't know how to do it
Let me show you how to walk the dog
Mary Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow
A silver bell, cockle shells
Pretty maids all in a row
Walkin' the dog
Just a-walkin' the dog
If you don't know how to do it
Let me show you how to walk the dog
