Salty Dog Blues (Take 2)

[Chorus]
Won't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, you salty dog
Oh honey babe, let me be your salty dog
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Verse 1]
Says it ain't but the one thing grieve my mind
All these women and none is mine
You salty dog, you salty dog

[Chorus]
Why don't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Verse 2]
Said a little fish, big fish swimmin' in the water
Come on back here, man, and give me my quarter
You salty dog, you salty dog

[Chorus]
Why don't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Verse 3]
Just like huntin' for the needle in the bed of sand
Tryin' to find a woman haven't got no man
Salty dog, you salty dog

[Verse 4]
Three barrels of your whisky, four barrels of gin
Said the headknocker's home and you can't come in
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Chorus]
Why don't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, you salty dog
Oh honey babe, let me be your salty dog
You salty dog, mama you salty dog

[Verse 5]
Says God made a woman and He made her mighty funny
Lips around her mouth just sweeter than the honey
You salty dog, you salty dog

[Chorus]
Why don't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Verse 6]
Now who in the ham in the confound nation
Turned them taters on my plantation?
You salty dog, you salty dog

[Chorus]
Why don't you let me be your salty dog
Don't want to be your man at all
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog

[Verse 7]
Now the scaredest I ever been in my life
Uncle Bud like to caught me kissin' his wife
You salty dog, you salty dog

[Verse 8]
Now if this was a coffee pot and that was the spout
I'll be the waitin' boy to pour the coffee out
You salty dog, mama, you salty dog
