Wild Old Dog Lyrics


Patty Griffin Wild Old Dog

God is a wild old dog,

Someone left out on the highway.

I seen him running by me,

He don't belong to noone now.

They dropped him out on 93.

Mange was setting in on his hips and on his knees.

Between the highways runnin north and south

They pulled on over and put him out

Willie said he was old and goin blind.

Momma told me how she didn't mind.

When Willie kicked him with his shoe,

He just climbed on in just like he knew

God is a wild old dog

Someone left out on the highway

I seen him runnin by me

He don't belong to noone now

It's lonely on the highway

Sometimes a heart can turn to dust

Get whittled down to nothin

Broken down and crushed

In with the bones of wild old dogs

Wild old dogs

They dropped him out on 93

Tall grass was waving there jyust like the sea

He tore off runnin like we set him free

Just disapperaed right in front of me

God is a wild old dog

Someone left out on the highway

I seen him runnin by me

He don't belong to noone now

He don't belong to noone now.
