Lyrics
The Weenie Man
© 1992 James McMillan
VERSE 1
I remember the weenie man, sell dogs as fast as you can he?d always say
I looked up to the weenie man, he took me by the hand and he said
There?s a special spell in every dog I sell
VERSE 2
I woke up in the morning, yeah just to wait for the weenie man to show up
He showed me the ropes of the job and said someday you?ll cook those hot dogs
So open up and shove a little hot dog love inside
CHORUS
I remember the weenie man
Corn dogs, chili dogs, he?ll make ?em anyway you can
And every hot dog was better than the last
And I remember the weenie man
VERSE 3
One day the dogs spoke to me and said they were very sad and ill at ease
For fear they would be grilled and ate so that night we made our escape far away
I hid them with my socks in an old shoe box and cried
CHORUS
VERSE 4
Now I go to the grocery store, I grab the hot dogs and I bust out the door
But I fear I?m hunted by the law these days and I fear the baked beans
Are talking to me
I am a spectacle I helped the vegetables escape
CHORUS
CHORUS
