Black Dog Lyrics - Singles - Babe Ruth

Black dog up and sniffed his plate a-steamin' on the stove 

Kids ain't seen you home all day, you're a gentleman born to roam 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

Have you seen the black dog's teeth, sharp like a knife? 

Have you seen him tear apart a throat, to take a life? 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

Have you seen the black dog's eyes starin' in the fire? 

It would not occur to him to question your desire 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

I've always had a fear of creatures cryin' in the dark 

And every form of evil seems to bear an evil mark 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

My man lay beside me and my black dog's at my feet 

He keeps me from my wanderin' life and he robs me of my sleep 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

Now I don't know the black dog's name but when I call him he will come 

How'd I ever get that black dog? Lord, he's shown me what he wants 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been today 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been 

Black dog don't believe in sin 

Think of where the black dog's been 

Think of where he's been
