When the party was nice, the party was bumpin'
Hey, yippie, yi, yo
And everybody havin' a ball
Ha, ha, yippie, yi, yo
I tell the fellas stop the name callin'
Hey, yippie, yi, yo
Then them gyals respond to the call
I hear a woman shout out

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?

I see ya' little speed boat head up our coast
She really want to skip town
Get back ruffy, back scruffy
Get back you flea infested mongrel

I'm gonna tell myself I might not get angry
Hey, yippie, yi, yo
To hear dem gyals calling them canine
Hey, yippie, yi, yo
But they say, "Hey man dat is part of the party"
Hey, yippie, yi, yo
Them woman in front and they man behind
I hear a woman shout out

Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?

A doggy is nothing if he don't have a bone (yeah, yeah, yeah)
All a doggy hold ya' bone, all doggy hold it
Ah doggy is nothing if he don't have a bone
All doggy hold ya' bone, all doggy hold it (hol' it, hol' it)

She really want to skip town
Get back fluffy, back scruffy
Get back you flea infested mongrel

Well if I am a dog
The party is on
I gotta get my groove on 'cause my mind done gone
Do you see the rays coming from my eyes?
Walking through the place the diji-man just breaking 'em down
Me and my white socks
Short and I can't see color
Any color but you
I'm figuring that's why they call me pit bull
'Cause I'm the man of the land when they see me they say, "ooh"

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (yippie, yi, yo)

Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
