[G] So this is the second in my series
Focusing on pets and then I promise I will be [Am] done this song my husband
Has asked me to tell audiences large and small that he is not the guy in this next song
But this song was [C] born because I had been on the road for a little while and
[G]
My dog loves me more than anything in the entire world as well
She should with the way she is treated.
So when I go on the road, she's a happy dog for the most part
But she does have abandonment issues
most of which manifest themselves on the rug and
[D] so I had been
At the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival.
I had been teaching at the [A] song school there.
I'd been gone for two weeks and
One morning I was standing around with a group of the songwriting [C] teachers
[G] And my phone rang and it was Mickey calling from home and he is calling to say that he had been very proud of himself
He had just managed to rush the dog outside just in time
And he walked in and one of the cats had thrown [C] up on the floor
And I hung up the [C] phone just feeling [G] mortified
Feeling [Db] guilty for [Abm] you know doing this career and being on the road
And one of the teachers looked at me and he said, you know what Christine?
One of these days you're gonna get a phone call and it's gonna be Mickey calling from home
And he's gonna have one word for you and that words gonna be [C] choose
And that got me thinking
[Ab] got me thinking about the people [Eb] who love their animals and the people who love the people who love their animals and
What would happen were such an ultimatum in [Db] fact delivered?
And this is the song that resulted from that line of thinking this is called four legs.
Good two legs bad

[C] Jenny found Mariah back in 1999 when she was living in a [G] town called Ben
The dog was in a dumpster and she went and got it neutered and Mariah's had it [C] made since then
Then a little while later at a truck stop in Decatur.
She saved this skinny cat
She [G] calls Clyde and then she found another and another and another if you add it [C] all together their spot

Jenny met Bob man, not a dog and her mother had a moment [G] of peace
Jenny thought he was her soulmate and a year after their first baby move in and [C] started sharing her lease
There was so much to get used to like the dog hair in his toe poop and tripping over all the cat [G] toys
And each time they eliminated each one was congratulated in a squeaky [C] high-pitched voice [F] Obviously
[C] The [Dm] Opinion [G] that
Something must [F] be different if [C] they live together
[Dm] For legs [G] good
two [C] legs better
Bob had been there half a year when all the things he found in Deering were beginning to [G] get on his last nerve
Making love at dawn with all the vermin looking on Nathan's and he would give up [C] boycotting fur
So when Jenny brought a kitten home, she found outside a nursing home and finally reached the [G] very last straw
At the risk that she would hate him.
He gave her his ultimatum.

He [Am] said shoes

pause [G] and this relationship [Am] and
Please [F] it's all do
not [Dm] a cause for [G] Celebration
Those [C] beasts of yours are [G] not [C] gone before I [G] go
[C] Out and then I [Dm] come [G] back again.
You can be [C] assured I [G] will

It was a good thing while it lasted few that he became a bastard.
He was lucky to be [C] living with us
So she took the brand-new kitten and they went into the kitchen and he made herself some [G] corn on the cob
The dog and cattle showed and he took everybody's vote and they decided they were named [C] the kitten Bob
[F] [C] Dogs and cats [Dm] have taken their [G] dominion
