Police Dog Blues

(arthur blake, adapted by ry cooder)



All my life i've been a travellin' man

All my life i've been a travellin' man

Stayin' alone and doing the best i can



I ship my trunk down to tennessee

Ship my trunk down to tennessee

It's hard to tell 'bout a man like me



I had a gal, i couldn't get her off my mind

I had a gal, i couldn't get her off my mind

She passed me up saying she didn't like my kind



Scared to bother around the house that night

I'm scared to bother around the house that night

Got police dogs cravin' for a fight



His game is rambling when he gets the chance

His game is rambling when he gets the chance

He leaves his mark on everybody's pants



Guess i'll travel, guess i'll let her be

Guess i'll travel, guess i'll let her be

Before she sets that police dog on me
