"Throw This Old Dog A Bone"

Baby, baby
Please throw this old dog a bone
Baby, baby
Please throw this old dog a bone

Well, well, well 'cause I'm driftin' an' driftin'
Like a ship out on the sea

Baby, baby
I ain't got no place to stay
Baby, baby
Babe, I ain't got no place to stay

Well, well, well, well, well, baby 'um
An' please throw this old dog a bone

When I first met you, baby
Honey, way down south somewhere 'um, yeah, yeah
When I first met you, baby
Baby, way down south somewhere 'um

You didn't go no place, now baby
But in, church an' the Sunday school, yeah, yeah

You way up here now, baby
You run around now, baby
Every notoriety joint in town

You up here, up here
Now baby run around
Every notoriety joint in town

You got to the place now, baby you
You don't pay me no mind
