Hello:

Would you know the author of this song? Couldn't find it.

----
Lovin' you baby, is just like rollin' off a log,
But if I can't be your woman, I sure ain't goin' to be your dog.

Had that been Billie Holiday? Or someone more prosaic like Peggy Lee?

Stephen King, The Shining

Well, some singers are given here, but not the ones you mention:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Know_You_Rider

There are several variations of the lyrics, but I think it's the same
song as you are looking for.

That's musicians for you - particularly in the folk or traditional
styles! They're always changing bits of the words or music.
