E B

There was a lady in a window in the room across the way

B A E

From the hotel I was staying in while on my holiday

E B

I couldn't help but see everything 'cause I was peeping I confess

B A E

Still after dinner every night, she had the strangest guest

She'd retire to her favorite chair and sit there with a dog

Fill the crystal glasses while the fire danced on the log

I watched them drink their bubbly brew until the fire grew dim

Then I stuck my head out the window and said why not me instead of him

Chorus

A B E A

Oh your bulldog drinks champagne and I ain't one to complain

E B

What a perfect waste of wine it seems to be

E A E A

so honey, tell ol' rover that the big dog's coming over

E C#m A B E

'Cause any woman that would get a bulldog drunk would have to be good to me

Fourteen days and fourteen nights not one word did I hear

Her with her silk and champagne over to me in my shorts with a beer

She just left the curtains wide and I knew she knew I could see

Her and the pug-nosed mutt guzzling wine and teasing me

Chorus

So I made a bolder move, I went over and rang her bell

I heard growling from inside and I got scared as hell

Then the bulldog staggered out the door and he said, how do yo do

But the lady bit me on the leg and I said r-rouf, I love you too

Chorus
