Put the Bone In Lyrics

Key of F. Starts off real slow and gets fast. Yeah. (Burp) You ready? Lets all snap and stuff; get kinda close with the snaps. Okay, ready? No, don't do that. One? Bone

Put the bone in she yelled at the store (yeah)
Cause my doggie's been hit by a car (by a car)
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she yelled out once more (whoo hoo)

Because the meat from the pork is so sweet (you tell him)
Give the bone from the pork meat to me (can you help me down here)
Put the bone in she begged him as she paced across the floor
Put the bone in she yelled out once more

Everybody sing? (okay)

Put the bone in she yelled at the store
Cause my doggie's been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she yelled out once more

(Huh) Put the bone in she yelled at the store
Cause my doggie's been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she yelled out once more

Put the bone in (Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww)
She yelled at the store
Cause my doggie's been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she yelled out once more
Put the bone in she yelled at the store (yee haw)
Cause my doggie's been hit by a car
And I do want to bring him home something
Put the bone in she yelled out once more?

(I'd like to thank the group? on behalf of ourselves. I'm sure we flunked the audition. Thank you. Thank you. Is that on tape? It's on tape. Want to do one more take? One more take. Okay, keep 'er rollin'.)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
