DOG PROBLEMS

Print without graphics

You could do the laundry
I'll come by on Monday
You give me the money
I'll go buy a ticket
On the local lottery
We could win the lottery
We could go to Vegas and be very happy

Ooh oooh ooh oh ooh oh oooh ooh oh oh oh oh [x2]

I could be a plumber
We could wait til summer
We could save our money
Have a fine vacation
We could buy a trailer
If we bought a trailer
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy

Ooh ooh oh oh oh
If life is just a gamble
Gamble if you want to win

Ooh ooh oh oh oh
If life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin

We could make a record
Sell a lot of copies
We could play Las Vegas
And be very happy

Ooh ooh oh oh oh
If life is just a gamble
Gamble if you want to win

Ooh ooh oh oh oh
If life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin

Ooh oooh ooh oh ooh oh oooh ooh oh oh oh oh [x2]
