You Can Eat Dog Food Tab por Tom Paxton

Verse:
G7
quit your bellyaching bub
C
saying you can't afford your grub
    F
saying a dollar ain't a dollar no more
   G
tell me buddy what's new
G7
can't afford to buy bread no more
      C
well this ain't a charity store
     F
you say your kid's are hungry too
      G
well it's good news for you

Chorus!
F
you can eat dog food!
C
you really ought to try it!
G
you can fricassee it!
 C
you can deep fry it!
     F
flip it on over!  
       C
eat it any way!
   G
eat along with rover,
       C
3 times a day!

it comes in a bag or a can
just the meal for a working man
if you're down on your luck just now
it'll get you through the day

if you eat in the afternoon
you're gonna feel like baying at the moon
but you're complaining too soon
this is all I gotta say!

chorus:
you can eat dog food!
you really ought to try it!
you can fricassee it!
you can deep fry it!
flip it on over!  cook it any way!
eat along with rover, 3 times a day!

find yourself a little vacant lot
clean the garbage from a little spot
light a fire let the coals get hot
ask the neighbors in!

you can open up a can or two
make patties like the swell folks do
have yourself a little barbecue
and let the fun begin!

chorus
