When a man has a dog in the city... then the man needs to walk in the park

Take a little stroll by the riverside, smoke a cigarette there in the dark

Living in the city, man living with a dog

 F                                                C
When a dog dumps on a sidewalk, walkin away is a crime

Living in the city, man walkin’ with a dog

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

Living in the city, workin’ like a dog    (work out)

Checkin’ in front, checkin’ in back, no ifs, no ands, just butts
              G7                       C
Living in the city, dog checkin’ out a dog

Just say, what’s her name, how old is she, Its easy like rolling off a log, 
                G7                      C
Checkin’ out a woman, man acting like a dog
 
       C                                                            C7
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
              G7                         C

Walking with dog in the winter in the wind in the rain and the snow is a drag

Its hard as hell to keep a cigarette lit and get the shit in the plastic bag

Living in the city, man living with a dog
