Patty Griffin - Wild Old Dog Lyrics
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 southThey pulled on over and put him outWillie 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 knewGod is a wild old dogSomeone left out on the highwayI seen him runnin by meHe don't belong to noone nowIt's lonely on the highwaySometimes a heart can turn to dustGet whittled down to nothinBroken down and crushedIn with the bones of wild old dogsWild old dogsThey dropped him out on 93Tall grass was waving there jyust like the seaHe tore off runnin like we set him freeJust disapperaed right in front of meGod is a wild old dogSomeone left out on the highwayI seen him runnin by meHe don't belong to noone nowHe don't belong to noone now.
