MR  BASCUM  [WOOF]

VS. l

Well Mr.Bascum’s got big floppy ears.

And big brown eyes,

A long wet nose and four big leathery paws.

His coat is mainly black with touches of brown.

And his tail never stops wagging

From the moment I open the door….

CH.

Well he’s kind of big and he wears a frown

And he makes you think he will bite!

But he’s just a big show – off,

And even a bigger chicken,

When it comes to a fight!

Well, he’s quite strong, but you could roll him along.

That is unless he’s pulling you!

And he may look dumb but he’s kind’ a smart.

‘Cause he talks to me and he might to you,…

If he likes you!                 If he likes you!

VS.2

Well we go  for  a walk  nearly  every night

To  get  our exercise!

Around  the corner and  four blocks up the  hill

But if we see a cat, then the chase is on.

That may  not  seem strange,

But it is when  the cat’s chasing you!  – CH

VS.3

There are many  types of  dogs

In  this big,  wide world

Too many for  me to name

But Mr. Bascum is a special case you’ll agree

And although he’s not pedigree

Or a special show dog breed.

He’s the dog that comes in when I haven’t

Got a friend in sight!….  –  CH
