| Give me a dollar or give me fifty cents
|
| Let me take it back if that ain’t what I meant
|
| Give me a coat or give me a bite
|
| Give me 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
|
| Up in the air
|
| 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 outta here, ah
|
| Give me a book, give me something to read
|
| Give me a horse race, give me who’s the lead, who is
|
| 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
|
| To be the dogman
|
| To be the dogman
|
| To be the dogman, hey
|
| To be the dogman, dogman
|
| All the sleeping never waking
|
| All the leaves in need of raking
|
| All the business undertaking
|
| All my bones and muscles aching
|
| Thoughts in 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, tell me
|
| Oh, give me a nail or give me a bat
|
| Give me a skinny or give me a fat, gimme the skinny
|
| 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
|
| To be the dogman
|
| Dogman
|
| To be the dogman
|
| To be the dogman, oh |
