Old Brown Dog

There’s an old brown dog laying in the sun
Dreadlock hippy on the run
Take another toke get a little higher
Throw another log on the campfire
I hear tell there’s a shootin’ on the hill
Better run for cover yes I think I will
Find a little place right now right here
Sit right down and have another beer

Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun

I got beans in the barrel chickens in the pen
Damn good and ready when Jesus comes again
Gotta get a rapture at the pearly gate
I went a knocking but they said I gotta wait
You come back a little later in the day
Might not be ready but I’m coming anyway
Forgive my sins varied and many
I’m a hungry man in the land of plenty

Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun

Take your place on the karma wheel
You’re gonna know just how it feels
Pray for mercy coming down
It’s gonna be you next time around
Once you was the chosen one
Now you’re back where you begun
You gone and broke the golden rule
It’s your own damn fault you silly fool

Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
Aaaaaooooooo old brown dog laying in the sun
