Teddy Bear / Hound Dog Lyrics

[CHAD]
Baby let me be
Your loving teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck
And bring me anywhere
Oh, let me be your Teddy Bear

[MS. SANDRA, spoken]
Oh God!

[CHAD, (DENNIS)]
Baby let me be
Around you every night (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Run your fingers through my hair
And cuddle me real tight. (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Just let me be your teddy bear

[MS. SANDRA, spoken]
Sir, let me put this a language you’ll understand. 
(sung)
You ain’t nothing but a Hound Dog
Snooping ‘round my door
You ain’t nothing but a Hound Dog
Snooping ‘round my door
You better wag your tail
‘Cause I ain’t gonna feed you no more
You tell me your high class
I can see through that
Yes, you tell me your a high class
I can see through that

[NATALIE]
She sees through that!

[MS. SANDRA]
And Daddy I know that you ain’t no real cool cat

[CHAD, MS. SANDRA]
I don’t wanna be your tiger, You ain’t nothing but a hound dog
‘Cause tigers play too rough, No! No! No! No!
I don’t wanna be your lion
(spoken)
Your not. 
‘Cause lions ain’t the kind you love enough!

[DENNIS, NATALIE]
He just wants to be, He ain’t nothing but a hound dog
Her teddy bear, Crying all the time
Put a chain around his neck, Hound dog
And bring him anywhere, Just go away!
Oh, Just let him be her, He ain’t never caught a rabbit and he ain’t no
[ALL]
Teddy bear!

[MS. SANDRA, CHAD, (NATALIE & DENNIS)]
You ain’t nothing but a hound dog!
Just wanna be, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Crying all the time!, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Your teddy bear!, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
No! You ain’t nothing but a hound dog, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Put a chain around my neck, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
Crying all the time!, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
And bring me anywhere!, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)

[CHAD & DENNIS]
Just say you’ll be

[NATALIE & MS. SANDRA]
He ain’t no friend of

[ALL]
Mine!

[NATALIE & MS. SANDRA, CHAD (DENNIS)]
You ain’t never caught a rabbit and you ain’t no friend of
Mine!, *howling*
You ain’t never caught a rabbit and you ain’t no friend of
Just say you’ll be
Mine!, Mine!, (Ba-Ba-Da-Ba-Da)
[CHAD]
I just wanna be your teddy bear!
