My Dog Rags
I have a dog, his name is Rags. He eats so much his belly sags.
His ears flip-flop and his tail wig-wags, and when he walks he goes zig-zag.
Chorus:
He goes flip-flop, wig-wag, zig-zag.
He goes flip-flop, wig-wag, zig-zag.
He goes flip-flop, wig-wag, zig-zag. I love Rags and he loves me.

But when I call, he doesn't obey. He always runs the other way!
Repeat chorus
