Give me a dollar or give me 50 cents
Let me take it back if that ain't what I meant
Give me a coat or give me a bite
Give me the a light bulb and make sure it's bright
Give me the moon or give me everywhere
Give me some powder to spray up in the air
Chorus:
Let me take my thoughts away
To think about another day
Remembering the times I pray
To help me deal with me
To be the dogman
Give me some attention lend me your ear
Give me what to do and get me out of here
Give me a book, give me something to read
Give me a horse race and give me who's the lead
Chorus:
Let me take my thoughts away
To think about another day
Remembering the times I pray
To help me deal with me
To be the dogman
All the sleeping never waking
All the leaves in need of raking
All the business undertaking
All my bones and muscles aching
Thoughts are mind are surely flaking
Over luncheons hands are shaking
Surety of no mistaking
Cars and horns and glass is breaking
Give me a color make it black or white
Give me a newspaper tell me if it's right
Give me a nail or give me a bat
Give me a skinny or give me a fat
Chorus:
Remembering the times I pray
To let me take my thoughts away
To think about another day
To help me deal with me.....
To help me deal with me.....
To be the dogman
