Wiener Dog Song



Original song that celebrates the enigmatic, beloved dachshund, featuring video footage and adorable photos of wiener dogs in various poses. 

Song written and performed by Yet Another String Band. If you want to sing along, here are the song's lyrics:

On the sixth day, God created man
But earlier that morning, He had another plan
He took some spare parts, some looked kinda weird
And cooked them for awhile and a wiener dog appeared

He had long floppy ears, sausage shaped and brown
Stubby little legs and belly dragging on the ground
A nose that's made for smellin', where rabbit might be dwellin'
But it won't be there for long when a wiener dog's around

Some dogs are hairy, and other dogs are small
but there's only one dog shaped like a Hebrew National
Kilbasic in form. At night they'll keep you warm
They're nature's perfect brat. Yes, the Wiener Dog is hot!

Thin little tail, that's in constant motion
Big, brown eyes, that beg for your devotion
Bark so loud it could disperse a riot crowd
You best not make a sound
When a wiener dog's around

Now a wiener dog's a carnivore, which leaves us little doubt
That you better watch your back when a wiener dog's about
They eat fish, pork and fowl and steaks when they can get 'em
So be careful of your hand when you go to pet 'em

Wiener dog, wiener dog
Everyone loves a wiener dog
To make a long story short and a short story long
Everybody sing the wiener dog song

Wiener dog, wiener dog
Everybody loves a wiener dog
To make a long story short and a short story long
Everybody sing the wiener dog song

Now some dogs are light and some dogs weigh a ton
But there's only one dog that fits so neatly on a bun!
Stubborn as a mule. You may think you rule.
But this I know is true...your wiener dog owns you

Little sharp teeth that'll cut through wooden plank
Body by zeppelin like a Ball Park Frank
A tongue that's made for licken' in places that'll sicken
But don't be tightly wound, when a wiener dog's around
No badger will be found when a wiener dog's around
Before you step best check the ground when a wiener dog's around

Wiener dog, wiener dog
Everyone loves a wiener dog
To make a long story short and a short story long
Everyone sing the wiener dog song

Wiener dog, wiener dog
Everyone loves a wiener dog
To make a long story short and a short story long
Everybody sing the wiener dog song

Wiener dog, wiener dog
Everyone wants a wiener dog
To make a long story short and a short story long
Everyone sing the wiener dog song
