Judy Collins - Little Brown Dog CAPO: 2nd Fret [Intro] [Verse 1] I buyed me a little dog its colour it was brown   Taught him to whistle to sing and dance and run   His legs they were fourteen yards long his ears they were broad Round the world in half a day on him I could ride       Sing terry o’ day [Verse 2] I buyed me a little bull he was four inches high   Everybody feared him whoever heard him cry   When he began to bellow he made such melodious sound That all the walls in London came tumblin’ to the ground       Sing terry o’ day    Sing taddle o’ day [Verse 3] I buyed me a flock of sheep thought they were all wethers   Sometimes they yielded wool sometimes yielded feathers I know mine are the very best sheep for yield and increase Every full and turn of the moon they bring forth lambs and geese       Sing terry o’ day    Sing taddle o’ day [Verse 4] I buyed me a little glass coloured it was green   In it were all the wonders man has ever seen   I put it in my pocket tied up with a cloth Cried and cried the day I found that it had been lost       Sing terry o’ day    Sing taddle o’ day [Verse 5] I buyed me a little dog its colour it was brown   Taught him to whistle to sing and dance and run   His legs they were fourteen yards long his ears they were broad Round the world in half a day on him I could ride       Sing terry o’ day    Sing taddle o’ day

La chanson évoque l'histoire d'un homme qui acquiert divers animaux et objets extraordinaires, chacun avec des caractéristiques étonnantes. Il se fait d'abord un compagnon à quatre pattes, un petit chien brun, qu’il réussit à apprendre à chanter et à danser. Ensuite, il parle d'un petit taureau intimidant, dont le bruit fait trembler les murs de Londres. Il mentionne également un troupeau de moutons, réputés pour leur productivité, et un verre vert renfermant les merveilles du monde, dont il se délasse, mais qu'il perd finalement. Ce récit, rempli de fantaisie et d'humour, met en avant un univers où les animaux et les objets prennent vie, illustrant ainsi une légèreté qui rappelle un côté ludique de l'existence. La répétition de refrains joyeux vient renforcer ce thème de célébration des petites choses, tout en offrant une belle note de nostalgie.
