Hot Dog In the City

I took Antonio for a walk today, and the song "Hot Child in the City" popped into my head. I couldn't help but start singing it, but I changed a few of the words...


Danger in the shape of somethin' wild
Stranger furry and red, he's a hungry child
No one knows who he is or what his name is
Don't know where he came from or what his game is

Hot dog in the city...
Hot dog in the city...
Runnin' wild and lookin' itty bitty...
Hot dog in the city...


So young to be loose and on his own
Puppy dog girls, they all want to take him home
He walks downtown, the girls all stop and stare
When he goes downtown, he walks like he just don't care


Sniff your way to my place, baby
My mom feeds me canned yummy dishes
Come on down to my place, puppy
I'll give you kisses...


Hot dog in the city...
Hot dog in the city...
He's kinda dangerous...
He's a hot dog in the city...




(Sorry mom, there was no place for 'ketchup' or 'mustard'. I really tried...)

That is the cutest dog ever. He looks like he had a great time out walking.

I was working the polls on Election Day and a woman came out and called someone on her cell phone and said "hot dog in the city, I didn't have to wait to vote". Is that an East Coast or Baltimore expression? I grew up saying "Hot Dog" in Detroit.
