Bad Dog Blues

Verse 1

I'm a bad dog
I've been lying here so long
I'm a bad bad dog
I've been lying here so long
But when I got my bone
I can do no wrong

Verse 2

My baby she left me
She left me high and dry
My baby she left me
She left me high and dry
And though I search my bowl
There's just no reason why

Verse 3

It's not just any stray
Gets to play with my ball
It's not just any stray
Gets to play with my ball
But when I met Delilah
My mouth it did fall

Verse 4

We settled on a home
A three by seven hole
We settled on a home
A three by seven hole
But she took away my heart
Nearly took away my soul

Verse 5

I've been sniffing round the world
I've been everywhere
I've been sniffing round the world
I've been everywhere
I'm busy cutting diamonds
But my lady's not there

Verse 6

The stars are in the gutter
The moon's sailing by
The stars are in the gutter
And the moon's sailing by
I'm chasing down the road
And I'm howling to the sky

Harmonica solo

Verse 7

I'm a bad dog
I've been lying here so long
I'm a bad bad dog
I've been lying here so long
When I got my bone
I can do no wrong
