Old Dog Blues (Kirk James)

I Your old dog needs feedin’
You know that’s why he’s done and gone
Your old dog needs feedin’
You know that’s why he’s done and gone
If you hadn’t gone off and not feedin’ him
He wouldn’t be long gone at all.

II Now maybe it’s what you’ve been feedin’ him
You gave him puppy chow and not full grown
Now maybe it’s what you’ve been feedin’ him
You gave him puppy chow and not full grown
If you had the right stuff to give him
He’d be by your side right now at home.

III You like to throw your dog the ball.
But you throw it way too far.
You like to throw your dog the ball.
But you throw it way too far.
If you could throw that ball as far as you wanted
He have to take your keys and drive your car.

IV The Humane Society is after ya.
You know there’s no place you can hide.
The Humane Society is after ya.
You know there’s no place you can hide.
If you hadn’t gone off and not feedin’ him.
You wouldn’t be stuck with this big ol’ fine.
