Lyrics:

Johnny is the joker
(He's a bird)
A very funny joker
(He's a bird)
But when he jokes my honey
(He's a dog)
His joking ain't so funny
(What a dog)
Johnny is the joker that's been trying to steal my baby
(He's a bird dog)

Johnny sings a love song
(Like a bird)
He sings the sweetest love song
(You ever heard)
But when he sings to my gal
(What a howl)
To me it's just a wolf dog
(On the prowl)
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy love my baby
(He's a bird dog)

Hey, bird dog
Get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog
You're on the wrong trail
Bird dog
You better leave my lovey dove alone

Hey, bird dog
Get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog
You better get away quick
Bird dog
You better find a chicken little of your own

Johnny kissed the teacher
(He's a bird)
He tip-toed up to reach her
(He's a bird)
Well, he's the teacher's pet now
(He's a dog)
What he wants he can get now
(What a dog)
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby

Hey, bird dog
Get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog
You're on the wrong trail
Bird dog
You better leave my lovey dove alone

Hey, bird dog
Get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog
You better get away quick
Bird dog
You better find a chicken little of your own
