A simple dog, with ears and nose Eli, eli, eli. I don't know why nobody likes him There's some people trying to put him away When he comes up to them They always say 'go away, go away Please take him home' Make him stay
Eli, eli, eli Eli, eli, eli
Several times I've tried to tell him 'Please don't make them say that' But he won't listen to me Sometimes I pray that there could be more between us But some people never are satisfied
