about

Denis wrote this song for one of his favorite girls, Trixie the Dog! A sweet depiction of the bond between man and animal, it is also an intimate portrayal of his daily life with his wife in Florida.

lyrics

TRIXIE MY LOVE, YOU WERE SENT FROM ABOVE
TO GIVE ME A SHOVE, AND TO SHOW ME TRUE LOVE
AND WHAT I’M MADE OF, IS NOW MUCH BETTER STUFF
JUST FOR KNOWING YOU LOVE, COME ON HOME WITH ME LOVE

AND COME WITH ME NOW TO AN ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
ALL OF THE GOOD GIRLS AND BOYS ARE FAST ASLEEP
ON ‘TIL THE DAWN IN OUR ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
I’LL MAKE THE BREAKFAST FOR MUMMY YOU AND ME, AND ITS

COME WITH ME NOW, BRING YOUR DOLLY
RUN WITH ME NOW, LET’S GET JOLLY
HAVE FUN WITH ME NOW, MELANCHOLY
IS SO NOT ALLOWED LET’S GET JOLLY
HAVE FUN WITH ME NOW, RUN WITH ME NOW

AND COME WITH ME NOW TO AN ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
I’LL WATCH THE SUN GO DOWN YOU CAN SIT AND DREAM
DREAM US A DAY ON AN ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
DREAM US A BACK YARD YOU’RE COMIN HOME

AND TRIXIE MY LOVE YOU’RE IN ALL OF MY PLACES
ALWAYS ON MY MIND AND DEEP INSIDE MY HEART
ON TIL THE DAWN IN OUR ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
I’M COMIN HOME GIRL AND WE’LL NEVER PART, AND I’TS

COME WITH ME NOW, BRING YOUR DOLLY
RUN WITH ME NOW, MELANCHOLY

ON OUR FAVOURITE CLOUD, HAVE SOME JOLLY

AND COME WITH ME NOW TO AN ISLAND OF CHEW BONES
I’LL WATCH THE SUN GO DOWN MUMMY’S MAKING TEA
