Hi, I've been trying to find an old thread about this but have no idea where I read it!

Anyhoo, the lyrics to Jimmie Raye's Philly dog around the world have bugged me for years, so I thought i'd sit down and really listen and after about an hour, I think I've finally solved it! If you think these are wrong, please correct me, I've left a question mark at the end of a couple of lines as I'm not 100% sure of them! If anyone else has struggled over the years, I hope this helps

Thanks for reading

Max
