Your Bulldog Drinks Champagne:
Jim Stafford. #24 in '74.
#1.
G
There was a lady in a window,
D
In the room across the way.
From the hotel I was staying in,
C G
While on my holi..day.
G
I couldn't help but see everything,
D
Cause I was peeping, I confess.
Still, after dinner every night,
C G
She had the strangest guest.
#2.
G
She'd retire to her favorite chair,
D
And sit there with a dog.
Fill the crystal glasses,
C G
While the fire danced on the log.
G
Well, I watched them drink their bubbly brew,
D
til that fire grew dim.
Then I stuck my head out the window,
C G
And said, 'WHY NOT ME INSTEAD OF HIM'!!??

CHORUS:
C D
Oh, your bulldog drinks champagne,
G C
And I ain't one to complain.
G C D
But, what a perfect waste of wine it seems to me.
G C G C
So, honey, tell ol' rover that the big dog's coming over...
G Em
Cause any woman that'd get a bulldog drunk,
C D G
Would have to be good to me.
#3.***(Chords are same for all verses)***
Fourteen days and fourteen nights,
Not one word did I hear.
Her with her silk and champagne,
And me in my shorts with a beer.
She just left the curtains wide,
And I knew she knew I could see.
Her and the pug-nosed mutt,
Guzzling wine and teasing me.
CHORUS:
So I made a bolder move,
I went over and rang her bell.
I heard growling from inside,
And I got scared as hell.
Then the bulldog staggered out the door,
And he said, 'How do you do?'
But the lady bit me on the leg,
And I said rrrr..woof, I love you too!
CHORUS:
A seventies hit from Kraziekhat.
