I remember to this day
The bright red Georgia clay...
I think that a lot of people remember this song. I would not call it forgotten.
I remember this song well. Hitting the road with a pretty girl would have been A-OK with me, with or without a dog.
Short story...
Before Dan Patrick had jobs at CNN, ESPN and began his own show network, he was on the radio at University of Dayton (WVUD) and later on a local rock station (WTUE) as the news/sports guy with his morning DJ partner.
He was known as Dan Pew here in Dayton.
Often when he did his bit, the DJ would play “Me And You And A Dog Named Boo” and both would sing the chorus but replace “Boo” with “Pew”.
I know this song primarily from the “Brady Kids” cover of it. It doesn’t get any more than ‘70s than that.

One of my favorites. Can’t count the number of times I’ve had to correct people who think the dogs name is Blue.
Bums were lucky old MacDonald didn’t shoot them and use them for fertilizer.
Nice tune though.
About that time met a girl. She moved off to Texas. Later I jumped in an old car with a cat named Momma and hit the road to catch up to her (that car ran great). Caught up to her and we’ve been together ever since. Probably heard that song a few times on the way.
I kind of remember it being on the country stations.
Are you picking up on my vibe? I was singing this song a few days ago for a few days and I don’t know why. I kept wonder who it was that sang it. I must have sent my question out to the universe and you picked it up. Thanks for supplying the answer. lol ;)
I loved that song when I was young (9 years old at the time.) It was in heavy rotation on the AM radio station to which I listened.
