          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!


[Verse 2]
         G7
it comes in a bag or a can
                            C
just the meal for a working man
                       F
if you're down on your luck just now
                          G
it'll get you through the day
       G7
if you eat in the afternoon
                                     C
you're gonna feel like baying at the moon
                            F
but you're complaining too soon
                    G
this is all I gotta say!


[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
cook it any way!
                 G
eat along with rover,
           C
3 times a day!


[Verse 3]
         G7
find yourself a little vacant lot
                                 C
clean the garbage from a little spot
                           F
light a fire let the coals get hot
                  G
ask the neighbors in!
        G7
you can open up a can or two
                      C
make patties like the swell folks do
                          F
have yourself a little barbecue
                  G
and let the fun begin!


[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!
