The lyrics to to the song, The Dogs, They Really Miss You, are appended below:

I know the day you left you said,
"Let's never talk again
But I'm not calling for myself, I'm calling, for them
Our little ones who wait at home,
heartbroken and upset
And though they don't remember much,
they can't seem to forget

[Chorus 1:]
The dogs, they really miss you,
they're different since you said goodbye
They brood, they pout, they feel put out,
if they could speak, they'd tell you "Hi"
They're too down to play around,
they've hardly touched their meals
The dogs, they really miss you,
and I know just how they feel

[Bridge 1:]
Their tails won't wag,
their hearts won't heal,
they blame themselves that you're a stray
They're sorry that you felt tied down,
and never learned to stay
Molly's nose is warm and dry,
since she sat and watched you pack
She figures that you must be lost,
and can't find your way back

[Bridge 2:]
And scooter's just a basket case,
he won't accept my calls
His squeeky toy lies silent,
he's lost interest in his balls

[Chorus 2:]
The dogs, they really miss you,
they're not themselves since you're not here
They sleep all day, watch TV all night,
they drink way too much beer
They've seen Old Yeller forty times,
they bathe less than they should
The dogs, they've stopped their poker games,
hoping you'll come home for good

[Tag:]
You know how they hate to beg,
but the dogs are really blue
Because they really miss you,
and you know that I do too, wa-wa-wa-ooooh
