You Got To Quit Kicking My Dog Around
Me and Lim Brick and Old Bill Brown Takin' a load of corn to town My Old Jim Dog, the darned old cuss He just naturally followed us As we drove by Sam Johnson's door Passed and cursed him out the door Jim, he's good behind the box And all them fellers are throwin' rocks Refrain: Every time I go to town The boys keep a-kickin' my dog around Makes no difference if he is a hound You got to quit kicking my dog around -Solo- They tied a can to Old Jim's tail Running him around the count jail That made us a-dead burned sore Lim, he cussed and Bill, he swore Me and Lim Brick and Old Bill Brown Lost no time a-get them down We lost them fellers on the ground SongtexteFor kicking my Old Jim Dog around Refrain: -Solo- Jim saw his duty there and then He tore 'em to them gentlemen He sure messed up the courthouse square With the rags and meat and the hide and hair The Sheriff came and stopped the fuss And all them boys shook hands with us We gathered 'round that load of corn And every man had a healthy horn Refrain: -Solo- Old Jim Dog is worth much cash But I can tell you, he ain't no trash He wakes me up before the break of day And he keeps them revenue-boys away He's the best old dog, you ever did see Wherever I go, he follows me His voice is sweet, his name is Jim He'd fight for me and I'd for him Refrain: -Solo- Aus Songtexte Mania
