Wild Old Dog

God is a wild old dog

Someone left out on the highway

I seen him running by me

He don't belong to no one now

Dropped him out on 93

Mange was setting in on his hips and on his knees

Between the highways running north and south

We pulled on over and we put him out

Willie said he was old and going blind

Momma told me how she didn't mind

When Willie kicked him with his shoe

He just climbed on in just like he knew

God is a wild old dog

Someone left out on the highway

I seen him running by me

He don't belong to no one now

It's lonely on the highway

Sometimes a heart can turn to dust

Get whittled down to nothing

Broken down and crushed

In with the bones of

Wild old dogs

Wild old dogs

Dropped him out on 93

Tall grass was waving there just like the sea

He tore off running like we set him free

Just disappeared right in front of me

God is a wild old dog

Someone left out on the highway

I seen him running by me

He don't belong to no one now

He don't belong to no one now
