Coulda had a dog in the name of Sassafrass
|
Black dog, when it came, it came so fast
|
Came into my room like a locomotive
|
Up into my bed like, "this is a hold up"
|
Out across the valley she chased a bone
|
Left me chewin' on a microphone
|
Askin' things that I always will
|
She left me cryin' on top of the hill, cryin'...
|
|
What am I to do now that baby's gone
|
'Cept to howl at the moon like a wounded dog
|
Singin whoa-oa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
|
Sad song now that baby's gone
|
I been cryin' on the hill till the break of dawn
|
Singin whoa-oa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
|
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, gone so sassafrass
|
|
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
|
If you don't use my love, it'll turn to rust
|
Turn a magic wand into an allen wrench
|
You have a home run hitter sittin' on the bench
|
One day your time's gonna be spent
|
Find you're lookin' back at the things you did
|
"Yeah what a fine man, why'd I let him pass?"
|
But at that time baby you can kiss my sassafrass
|
|
What do now that baby's gone
|
Howl at the moon like a wounded dog
|
Singin' whoa-oa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
|
Sad song now that baby's gone
|
You been cryin' on the hill till the break of dawn
|
Singin' whoa-oa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
|
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, sassafrass, gone so fast
|
Sassafrass, gone so sassafrass
|
