WHEN GILLY GETS SILLY

SHE'S THE LADY OF THE VILLAGE
SO REGAL AND SERENE
SOME SAY SHE'S THE MOST BEAUTEOUS BEARDED COLLIE THEY HAVE SEEN

SHE SITS INSIDE "AROUND THE BLOCK"
DEMURE AND OH SO SWEET
EXCEPT FOR WHEN THE UPS TRUCK CRUISES UP THE STREET

AND THAT'S WHEN
GILLY - GETS SILLY - SHE RUNS WILLY NILLY
SHE SEEMED SO SEDATED, NOW SHE'S QUITE AGITATED
SOMETIMES SO PRECOCIOUS, NOW HER BARK SOUND FEROCIOUS
PROTECTING THE TOWN FROM THOSE "PEOPLE IN BROWN"
YOU CAN HEAR JANIE SIGH, SAYING "GILLY, LIE DOWN"
AND YOU THINK SHE MIGHT BARK FROM DUSK TO DAWN
BUT SHE'LL STOP WHEN THE BROWN TRUCK IS GONE

THEY MET WHEN SHE WAS SEVEN
THEY LOVED HER AT FIRST SIGHT
SHE'D FOUND HER DOGGIE HEAVEN WITH THIS FAMILY, ALL RIGHT

SHE BRINGS THEM JOY AND LAUGHTER
AND LOVING EVERY DAY
SHE SHOWS NO STRESS UNTIL THE UPS MAN COMES HER WAY

AND THAT'S WHEN
GILLY - GET'S SILLY - SHE RUNS NILLY WILLY
HER TAIL BOBS AND SWISHES
COULD SHE KNOCK OVER DISHES?
STILL JANIE ADORES HER, THE DOG NEVER BORES HER
JANGLED NERVES MIGHT GET FRAYED BUT DELIVERIES GET MADE
THEN GILLY RETURNS TO HER SPOT IN THE SHADE
THER'S NO NEED THAT SHE BARK DUSK 'TILL DAWN
NOW THAT THE MAN AND HIS BROWN TRUCK ARE GONE

SHE'S THE LADY OF THE VILLAGE - WHAT WOULD WE DO WITHOUT HER
WE WONDER IF SHE KNOWS THAT SOMEONE WROTE A SONG ABOUT HER
