Big Dog

From the album Halfway Home

Big dog on a short chain
Barkin' all night long
Left out in the cold rain
To sing his lowdown song
Little dogs join in
Tunin' up the choir
That big dog on a short chain
Set the night on fire

Straw man down a dark hallway
Floppin' on the floor
Set up and shot down
So many times before
Time will find the truth
If truth can find the time
That straw man down a dark hallway
Left me walkin' blind

Big dog on a short chain
Sleepin' in the sun
He's feelin' no pain
Now his work is done
Little dogs sleep in
Feelin' mighty tired
That big dog on a short chain
Set the night on fire

Woo hoo
