The reality of our early morning walks put to music. You may or may not find this song funny.
The Morning Walk
By Timothy Price
[Verse 1]
Walk the dog three sunder miles
Before the sun begins to rise
Photographing cranes through the brush
While Dawn applies her soft pink blush
[Verse 2]
Winding trails hold booby traps
Stepping over coyote crap
Tree roots of all evil lie in wait
Trying to trip us up
[Chorus]
Daily early morning walks
Frozen Dawn chokes the darkness
Monsters succumb to morningtide
Stand in wonder, beauty surrounds us
[Verse 3]
Taking pauses for leglifts
Pilates pee-mail on the tumbleweeds
Messages are left for canine noses
For one and all to ascertain
That “Jake was here!” Again
[Bridge]
Frosty air irritates the nose
Clear it with a Farmer’s blow
Blasting boogers broken backs
Paralyzed on the frozen ground
[Chorus]
Daily early morning walks
Frozen Dawn chokes the darkness
Monsters succumb to morningtide
Stand in wonder, beauty surrounds us
[Outro]
Slow first mile then quickened pace
Dragging the line past hugging trees
He still gets in a few last pees
Before we’re standing at the door
Turning off the clock
Starting morning chores


Spunk: “Let’s hear what you got, Paparazzo!” Marble: “I don’t think I can take it!”
We love it! Stupid cats.

Belafonte: “Is it safe to come out and dance?”


and proper afternoon pop back savor for me… Really enjoyed this
Thanks, Shey.
You are welcome.
What fun lyrics, photos, and commentary.
Thanks, Brad
Creative storytelling! Thank you for sharing. 🎶
Thanks, Michele.
This is a very entertaining song. It reminds me of our winter trips to the bush. Love the crane video
Thanks, Robbie.
I love it and the kitty kat is so beautiful. :)x
Thanks, Janet.
Grand photos and a very funny some, mate!
Thanks, Inchy.
Love the new song! I’ll bet a lot of dog-walkers can relate!!
I’m sure they can. While the cats are all snuggled up and warm, I’m freezing out, while Jake is loving it. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Fabulous.
Thanks, Gigi.
So fun, good one Tim!👍
Thanks, Tiffany.
Listening on SoundCloud. Love it!!
I think Spunkie-Poo 💋 thinks Jake is getting too, much Jakey-Poo!
I’m happy you like the song. Jake does demand a lot of attention. Although our three-mile walk starting at daybreak wears him out. Thanks, Resa.
Welcome! xx
Good to see you making music, Tim! Describes your morning walk well. Easy to visualize! Not my cup of listening tea but I appreciate the effort and skill you put into it. Verse 3, I could relate to – reminded me of what we see with feral cats around here. 🙂
Back to my simple grunge-style on the song. I thought there was a lot for animal owners to relate to in the verses. Thanks, Lavinia.
