Black Dog Blues - Dirk Hamilton

You don't know what I know

and I don't know a thing

when we hit the Sweet Forever

we'll know everything

There's no need to worry
so we're gigglin' under fire
Here's your hat, what's your hurry?
Do what you desire

Black Dog Blues Black Dog Blues
if the devil don't wag this world
then why's you cats out there all lickin' his shoes?

When accountants count their blessings
and all the checks are in the mail
we'll put a poet in the White House
lock a lawyer down in jail
and leaving love to love's dominion
we'll let the busybodies be
'cuz while they're busy in their bodies
souls flow free

Black Dog Blues Black Dog Blues
if the devil don't wag this world
then why's you cats out there all lickin' his shoes?
Black Dog Blues Black Dog Blues
if the devil don't wag this world
then why's you cats out there
all lickin' his shoes?

Some go for the money, some go for the buzz
but it'll be the Sweet Forever soon enough for us

Kenneth Patchen said it, now I've sung it on to you
if the devil don't wag this world
then why's you cats out there all lickin' his shoes?
