Blue Lightnin' (Jewel 5000)
I got a dog in my back yard, howled the day my baby's gone
I got a dog in my back yard, howled the day my baby's gone
Yes he puts my mind on a wonder, how that thing was goin' along
You know a thing's so sad, when a dog feels it deep down in his heart
You know a thing's so sad, when a dog feels it deep down in his heart
Guess you know a man can't help but mess around her,
when a dog in his backyard hates to see them part
