Johnny, he's a joker (he's a bird)

A very funny joker (he's a bird)

But when he jokes my honey (he's a dog)
    A
His jokin' ain't so funny (what a dog)
E                          D
Johnny is a joker that's a-tryin' to steal my baby
                AA D G  EEEE
(He's a bird dog)

A
Johnny sings a love song (like a bird)

He sings the sweetest love song (you ever heard)
    D
But when he sings to my gal (what a howl)
   A
To me he's just a wolf dog (on the prowl)
E                            D
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy-love my baby
                 AA D G  EEEE
(He's a bird dog)

D
Hey, Bird Dog, get away from my quail
A
Hey, Bird Dog, you're on the wrong trail
E                            D           A
Bird Dog you better leave my lovey-dove alone
D
Hey, Bird Dog, get away from my chick
A
Hey, Bird Dog, you better get away quick
E                           D                      A  AA D G  EEEE
Bird Dog, you better find a Chicken Little of your own

A
Johnny kissed the teacher (he's a bird)

He tiptoed up to reach her (he's a bird)
      D
Well, he's the teacher's pet now (he's a dog)
     A
What he wants he can get now (what a dog)

E                            D
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby
