THE ''DAWG" SONG IS MUCH ABUSED
HAS BEEN KICKED TO ALL KINDS OF SHAPES BY THE PAPERS OF ARIZONA.

A southern Arizona paper has just come forth with an Italian version o1 the famous "dawg" song.
 Kicked into high class Italian, the "dawg" song loses it's identity as fol lows:
 Ogni coita che vengo a visitare il
 paese La gente commincia cacciare il mic
 canino con calci di piede, Non ia nessun effectto che sia UT
 caninuccit, Bisogna che finiscono di cacaire il
 mic canino con calci di piede. The literal translation of the above causes the song in English to read with the following classical Shakes perian swing: Each time that I come to visit in the
 community The rabble commences to buffet my
 dog with blows of the foot. It makes not any effect that he should
 be a lowly dog, It is their business that they should
 cease to buffet my dog with
 blows of the foot.
