This is one of my favorite Beatles Songs, and the last few times Ive heard ive tried to make out what John and Paul are saying in the end, but to no avail. Is there anyone who can actually understand what they're saying, and if you can, can you post it here?
I love "Hey Bulldog" Paul and his current band would rock this one live that's for sure.
"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."
"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."
"Jimmy was a cool guitar player. Henry (McCullough) had been too, but Jimmy seemed a bit special." - Paul McCartney
John: You've got it! That's great! You hit it! That's it, man! Woop! That's it! You got it! Ha ha ha!
Paul: Woo!
John: Don't look at me, man. I only have grandchildren.
Paul: Ha ha hoo ha ha hoo etc.
John: Okay. Quiet, boy! Quiet!
Paul: Okay.
John: Heyyyy...
Both: ...bulldog!
Paul's barking like a dog, and John's quieting him down (as you would a pet), tossing a Lennonish joke in the middle. That's about all the "meaning" there. The real meaning is that even in 1968, they could still goof around hysterically with each other and be cheeky enough to keep their improvisations in the finished version.
No problem. The reason it's so hard to make out exactly who's saying what is, of course, the heavy distortion on the vocals. It sure works for the song, though!
On a completely incidental note, the worst cover version of any Beatles song I've ever heard was done by a high school brass band. They covered "Hey, Bulldog," except changed the chorus line "You can talk to me" to "Albuquerque" (where I live). Yeah, it was as bad as you're imagining. Worse, actually.

Oh. Oh, my.

All you've got to do is choose love. That's how I live it now. I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden. I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007
For all I know, Ringo might be a yogi disguised as a drummer! - George Harrison
I didn't think of the traumatic effect that recollection would have on the DM brethren (and sisteren). I won't do it again. (Offering a cold washcloth)
