We (we being Mom and my sisters) sing this song to this day, although we tend to sing something that I see now is not actually in the song- "I'm a dogdogdog I'm a doooooooooooog, I'm a hard workin' dog".
Who the hell is singing that?! It sounds SO much like Woodie Guthrie!!
This is, by the way, one of the best things from Sesame Street ever. I would so get a border collie, if I didn't have the apartment-work-all-the-time lifestyle. *sigh*
"Cow Dog Song" is a filmed Sesame Street song segment, in which a cow dog sings about his job, and how he's a "hard workin' dog." The film was produced, directed, scored, and sung by Fred Wardenburg. - Muppet Wiki
