Welcome back to another #MusicMonday! It’s not about books, but about music, and I’m looking forward to presenting you with a taste of my playlist. It’s the brainchild of Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek, but my inspiration comes from the lovely Claire from A Knight’s Reads. Every Monday, I’ll be choosing a song to share with you. The Spotify playlist is here and it will be updated as I go along.

On Saturday, my team Bradford City played Huddersfield Town in a Yorkshire derby for the first time in around 17 years. I was delighted with the result, so even though I know it’s immature, there was only one song for today.

Baha Men: Who Let The Dogs Out?

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?

Well, the party was nice, the party was pumpin’
Heya, yippie yi yo
And everybody havin’ a ball
Huh, huh, yippie yi yo
I tell the fellas start the name callin’
Yippie yi yo
And the girls respond to the call
I heard a woman shout out

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?

I see de dance people had a ball
‘Cause she really want to skip town
Get back, Gruffy, back, Scruffy
Get back you flea infested mongre

Gonna tell myself, “hey, man no get angry”
Heya, yippie yi yo
To any girls callin’ them canine
Hey, yippie yi yo
But they tell me, “hey, man, it’s part of the party”
Yippie yi yo
You put a woman in front and her man behind
I heard a woman shout out

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?

Say, a doggy is nuttin’ if he don’ have a bone
All doggy, hold ya’ bone, all doggy, hold it
A doggy is nuttin’ if he don’ have a bone
All doggy, hold ya’ bone, all doggy, hold it

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?

I see de dance people had a ball
‘Cause she really want to skip town
Get back, Gruffy, back, Scruffy
Get back you flea infested mongrel

Well, if I am a dog, the party is on
I gotta get my groove ’cause my mind done gone
Do you see the rays comin’ from my eye
Walkin’ through the place that digi-man is breakin’ it down?
Me and my white short shorts
And I can’t see color, any color will do
I’ll stick on you, that’s why they call me “pit bull”
‘Cause I’m the man of the land
When they see me they say, who?

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)

Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who? (Yippie yi yo)
