Lyrics

At a shelter in the District, Chessie’s sittin’ all alone
Hopin' someone will see her and maybe take her home
She says, “Maybe if I’m lucky I’ll meet a nice young family
They’ll feed me from the table and their kids will play with me."
Well, Chessie, I ain’t got none of that
but I’ll let you sleep with me
And Chessie, if you like money, I’ve got stacks and stacks and stacks that you can eat!

Chessie, can you picture
how it's gonna be?
I’m great at owning dogs
I’ve got a fence and a tree
And I don’t mean brag but did you know I’ve buried three?
Oh Chessie maybe this time, you can bury me
Chessie odds are real good, you’re gonna bury me

A parody of Joshua Kadison, “Jessie"

    I don't think its a quote. He has been talking up his ownership abilities the past few weeks but the only specific qualification seems to be that he has a fenced-in yard.

    i can't stop laughing at "i'm great at owning dogs" because it sounds like something he would say. IS it something he said?

    No idea what this song is... but if I hear the original, this is still the version that will stick with me. "I don't mean to brag but I've buried three" killed me when listening on the prodcast.

    Ok, I also love this song but I have no idea who Joshua Kadison. Great performance! "I'm great at owning dogs, I've got a fence and a tree" is fantastic. The ending makes me kinda sad.

    They're tentatively playing "Do It Again" tomorrow but I'm tempted to muddy the waters by submitting this silly dog song.

    How fitting that the three of you are the three who inspired me to do something Chessie-related due to your recent dog jingle silliness. It's a self-licking ice cream cone!!
