Wildwood Weeds Lyrics by Jim Stafford

Wildwood Weeds Lyrics


    There was a lady in a window
    In the room across the way
    From the hotel I was staying in
    While on my holiday
    I couldn't help but see everything

    'Cause I was peeping I confess
    Still after dinner every night
    She had the strangest guest

    She'd retire to her favorite chair
    And sit there with a dog
    Fill the crystal glasses
    While the fire danced on the log
    I watched them drink their bubbly brew
    Until the fire grew dim
    Then I stuck my head out the window
    And said why not me instead of him

    Oh your bulldog drinks champagne
    And I ain't one to complain
    What a perfect waste of wine it seems to be
    So honey, tell ol' rover that the big dog's coming over
    'Cause any woman that would get a bulldog drunk
    Would have to be good to me

    Fourteen days and fourteen nights
    Not one word did I hear
    Her with her silk and champagne
    Over to 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

    Oh your bulldog drinks champagne
    And I ain't one to complain
    What a perfect waste of wine it seems to be
    So honey, tell ol' rover that the big dog's coming over
    'Cause any woman that would get a bulldog drunk
    Would have to be good to me

    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 yo do
    But the lady bit me on the leg
    And I said r-rouf, I love you too

    Oh your bulldog drinks champagne
    And I ain't one to complain
    What a perfect waste of wine it seems to be
    So honey, tell ol' rover that the big dog's coming over
    'Cause any woman that would get a bulldog drunk
    Would have to be good to me
