THIS SALTY DOG

about

I bought a banjo and this dog leapt out of it, pretty much as he is here.

lyrics

THIS SALTY DOG

Salty dog howled the whole night long
Salty dog sang a mournful song
Salty dog wouldn't let me sleep
Salty dog swam the cripple creek

And he went woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo- ooo, woo -ooo

In the night when the north wind screams
In the night in your troubled dreams
In the night you can hear him wail
Through the night till the sky turns pale

And he goes woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo- ooo, woo -ooo

Salty dog's never seen the sea
Salty dog lives in you and me
Salty dog gets to every part
Salty dog penetrates your heart

He goes woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo woo woo woo-oo woo
Woo- ooo, woo -ooo

Salty dog Salty dog
Won't you go to sleep
Won't you go to sleep
