[Intro]
Yes folks, these is my weary dogs
[Verse 1]
Oh Lordy, how the sun do shine
Oh Lordy, how the sun do shine
And I can't get no Charleston with this brownskin girl of mine
[Verse 2]
They barkin' in the mornin', they barkin' late at night
They barkin' in the morning, they barkin' late at night
My weary dog barks so loud, it'll take a good man's appetite
[Verse 3]
They wake me every mornin', Lordy, with the risin' sun
They wake me in the mornin', well Lordy, with the risin' sun
My weary dogs don't leave me until my day's work is done
[Verse 4]
Me and my weary dogs startеd, we started out at Jackson Park
Well mе and my weary dogs started, we started out at Jackson Park
And it's music to any good man's ear, for to hear my weary dogs bark
[Verse 5]
I can tell when it's rainin', honey, I know when the sun gon' shine
I can tell when it's raining, sugar, I know when the sun gon' shine
Because my weary dogs keep me posted all the time
[Verse 6]
Weary dogs in my young day, weary dogs is all I crave
Weary dogs in my young day, weary dogs is all I crave
Sometime I think weary dogs is goin' to carry me to my grave
[Outro]
Look out there, man, don't let that dog bite me
Weary Dogs Blues was written by George Perkins.
