Babe Ruth - Black Dog lyrics

Black dog up and sniffed his plate a-steamin' on the stove Kids ain't seen you home all day, you're a gentleman born to roam Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today Have you seen the black dog's teeth, sharp like a knife? Have you seen him tear apart a throat, to take a life? Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today Have you seen the black dog's eyes starin' in the fire? It would not occur to him to question your desire Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today I've always had a fear of creatures cryin' in the dark And every form of evil seems to bear an evil mark Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today My man lay beside me and my black dog's at my feet He keeps me from my wanderin' life and he robs me of my sleep Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today Now I don't know the black dog's name but when I call him he will come How'd I ever get that black dog? Lord, he's shown me what he wants Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been today Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been Black dog don't believe in sin Think of where the black dog's been Think of where he's been
