Get Out of Here (Dog Named Bo)

In a little shack down by the bay
Not far from New Orleans
I met this country girl down there
While I was about 19
She went and told her daddy
She wants to marry me
And the look on her daddy's face y'all
Really was a sight to see
He said

Get out of here with you
Don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more

I wanted to meet her daddy
Just like I know I oughta
But he didn't want, no blues singer, to marry his daughter
Well, I went by his house today
He met me at the door
With his sisters, brothers, and big bad John
And the dog named Bo

Get out of here with you
Don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
Don't you come back no more
He kept on saying
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more

Her brothers and sisters
Sick the dog on me, made him tear off all my clothes
They were yelling at the dog saying
"Sick him, sick him go, go"

I was running fast, trying to get away y'all
Down the railroad track
I could hear the kid throwing rocks at me
Every time I stopped to look back, sayin'
Get out of here with you, don't you come back no more

Dig down to get married
Judge says, "Do you solemnly swear
Take this woman for your lovely wife
Not a one night love affair"
Before I could open my mouth to say, " I do"
Guess who walked through the door
Dad and mom, big brother John
And the dog named Bo, sayin'

Get out of here with you
Don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more

I knew if we wanted to get married
We had to find a way to elope
We decided to go to Las Vegas
Get away from nosey folks
Went down to the Chesapeake
As soon as we walked in
There was all of her kin, all her friends
And the doggone dog again, sayin'

Get out of here with you
Don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more
Don't you come back, boy
Get out of here with you
(And no more) don't you come back no more
Don't you come back no more

Get out of here with you
And here is the aura
There is no meeting (get out of here with you)
Good enough for my dog (don't you come back no more)
Kept on sayin'

Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more
Don't you come back
Get out of here with you
Are you okay?

Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more
Get out of here with you
And don't you come back no more (don't you come back no more) no more
(Get out of here with you) don't come back no more
(Don't come back no more) leave town boy, get out of here with you
