Clifford needed Emily, so she chose him for her own
And her love made Clifford grow so big that the Howards had to leave their home
Clifford's the best friend anyone could know, he's the greatest dog ever, I really think so
Clifford's so loyal, he's there when you call, I love Clifford the big red dog
So they packed the family car, and the Howards left the ci-ty
They moved to Birdwell Island, their many new friends there to greet Clifford and Emily
Clifford's so much fun, he's a friend to us all, I love Clifford the big red dog
