Fillin Station Dog
I’m a fillin’ station dog at the end of a chain
A fillin’ station dog keepin’ outta the rain
I’m a fillin’ station dog, got my tongue hangin’ out
A fillin’ station dog - that’s what I’m about
I’m a fillin’ station dog tryin’ not to get kicked
I’m always lookin’ for somethin’ I can lick
I’m a fillin’ station dog ’mid the tires an’ the grease
A fillin’ station dog lookin’ for my peace
I’m a fillin’ station dog with one little wish
For some shade from a tree an’ some water in my dish
Some friendly conversation, won’t you throw me a bone?
A warm, tattered blanket when I’m sleepin’ all alone
A pat on my head, every once in a while
A scratch on my neck, a friendly kinda smile
So, I can lay my tired nose down on my tired paws
And take a little doze, because that’s what I do
‘Cause I’m a fillin’ station dog
Then, I’ll give up a couple o’ bars to the moon
I know she likes my tune
I got a low and throaty
Lazy kinda croon
Da, dahtn’ da da da dadada...
Then, I’ll give up a couple o’ bars to the moon
I know she likes my tune
I got a low and throaty
Lazy kinda croon
I’m a fillin’ station dog with one little wish
For some shade from a tree an’ some water in my dish
Some friendly conversation, won’t you throw me a bone?
A warm, tattered blanket ’cause I’m sleepin’ all alone
I’m a fillin’ station dog with not much to do
I’m a fillin’ station dog, not much use to you
I’m a fillin’ station dog ’mid the tires an’ the grease
A fillin’ station dog, lookin’ for my peace
Yeah, I’m a fillin’ station dog
I’m a fillin’ station dog
Yeah, I’m a fillin’ station dog
