LYRICS
Well now you call me a dog, when I'm gone now, baby
Get a black dog when I'm gone
When I get back with a hundred dollar bill
It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"
And now my papa he learned me to gamble
Told me bet on the deuce and the trey
When I see my last dollar down, I'm gonna bet on that ol' deuce and trey
And now you call me a dog, when I'm gone now, baby
Get a black dog when I'm gone
But when I get back with a hundred dollar bill
It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"
And now I've rolled my dice in Cuba, played my cards in Spain
When I see my last dollar go, I'm gonna hop on that ol' fast train
Well, you call me a dog, when I'm gone now, baby
Get a black dog when I'm gone
But when I get back with a hundred dollar bill
It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"
I was born in North Kentucky, raised in Tennessee
Any ol' place that I hang my hat, well it looks like home to me
Well, you call me a dog, when I'm gone now, baby
Get a black dog when I'm gone
But when I get back with a hundred dollar bill
It's "Daddy, where you been so long?"
