Wild Old Dog Lyrics

God is a wild old dog,
Someone left out on the highway.
I seen him running by me,
He don't belong to no one now.
They dropped him out on 93.
Mange was setting in on his hips and on his knees.
Between the highways running north and south
They pulled on over and put him out

Willie said he was old and going blind.
Momma told me how she didn't mind.
When Willie kicked him with his shoe,
He just climbed on in just like he knew

God is a wild old dog
Someone left out on the highway
I seen him running by me
He don't belong to no one now
It's lonely on the highway
Sometimes a heart can turn to dust
Get whittled down to nothing
Broken down and crushed
In with the bones of wild old dogs
Wild old dogs
They dropped him out on 93
Tall grass was waving there just like the sea
He tore off running like we set him free
Just disappeared right in front of me

God is a wild old dog
Someone left out on the highway
I see him running by me
He don't belong to no one now
He don't belong to no one now.
