Everytime I come to town
Them boys keep kicking my dawg around
It doesn't matter that he's a hound
They gotta stop kicking my dawg around
Me and Lem Briggs and old Bill Brown
Took a load of corn to town
My old dawg, Jim, the ornery old cuss
Well he just naturally followed us
Everytime I come to town
Them boys keep kicking my dawg around
It doesn't matter that he's a hound
They gotta stop kicking my dawg around
As we drove past Johnson's store
A pa**el of yaps come out the door
Jim he scooted behind a box
Cause all them fellas was throwin' rocks
Everytime I come to town
Them boys keep kicking my dawg around
It doesn't matter that he's a hound
They gotta stop kicking my dawg around
They tied a can to old Jim's tail
And run him past the county jail
Well that just naturally made us sore
Lem, he cussed, and Bill, he swore
Everytime I come to town
Them boys keep kicking my dawg around
It doesn't matter that he's a hound
They gotta stop kicking my dawg around
Me and Lem Briggs and old Bill Brown
Lost no time gettin' down
We swept them fellas right into the ground
For kickin' my old dawg Jim around
Jim seen his duty right there and then
He lit right into them gentlemen
He sure messed up the courthouse square
With rags and meat and hide and hair
Everytime I come to town
Them boys keep kicking my dawg around
It doesn't matter that he's a hound
They gotta stop kicking my dawg around
