Black Dog

Lyrics

[Chorus] Well now you call me a dog when I'm gone, honey babe It's "Black dog" when I'm gone When I get back with a hundred dollar bill It's "Daddy, where you been so long?" [Verse 1] I was born in old Kentucky I was raised in Tennessee Any old place that I hang by hat Looks like home to me [Chorus] Well now you call me a dog when I'm gone, honey babe It's "Black dog" when I'm gone When I get back with a hundred dollar bill It's "Daddy, where you been so long?" [Verse 2] My daddy, he taught me to gamble Told me to bet on the deuce and trey When I see my last deal go down I'm gonna bet on the old deuce and trey [Chorus] Well now you call me a dog when I'm gone, honey babe It's "Black dog" when I'm gone When I get back with a hundred dollar bill It's "Daddy, where you been so long?" [Verse 3] I rolled my dice in Cuba Dealt my cards in Spain When I hear some lonesome whistle blow I jump on an old freight train [Chorus] Well now you call me a dog when I'm gone, honey babe It's "Black dog" when I'm gone When I get back with a hundred dollar bill It's "Daddy, where you been so long?" [Chorus] Well now you call me a dog when I'm gone, honey babe It's "Black dog" when I'm gone When I get back with a hundred dollar bill It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"
