(Don't pause on instrumentals)

    C                              C7
When a man has a dog in the city... then the man needs to walk in the park
F                                   C
Take a little stroll by the riverside, smoke a cigarette there in the dark
        G7           C
Living in the city, man living with a dog

    C                           C7
And a man has to carry him a plastic bag on his person at all times

When a dog dumps on a sidewalk, walkin away is a crime
       G7            C
Living in the city, man walkin? with a dog

  C                              C7
A man likes livin? in the city ... but a man has to find some work

Walkin? with a dog is a kind of a job, make you feel like a fool and a jerk

Dog likes living in the city..., in the city there?s a lot of other mutts
F                             C
Checkin? in front, checkin? in back, no ifs, no ands, just butts
       G7            C
Living in the city, dog checkin? out a dog

     C                               C7
(Spoken)It?s a pretty good way to meet a woman, if a woman is walking a dog
     F                               C
Just say, what?s her name, how old is she, Its easy like rolling off a log,

When a man has a fight with a woman, then the man needs to go for a walk

Walking with a dog is easy, he listens he don?t talk

Instrumental (C C7 F C G7 C)

C                                     C7
Walking with dog in the winter in the wind in the rain and the snow is a drag
F                                    C
Its hard as hell to keep a cigarette lit and get the shit in the plastic bag
       G7            C
Living in the city, man walking with a dog

    C                                              C7
When a man has a dog in the city ... (very long pause with harmonies) the man needs to walk in the park
F                                   C
Take a little stroll by the riverside, smoke a cigarette there in the dark
       G7           C
Living in the city, man living with a dog
