Dead Dog On A Highway
Like a dead dog on a highway
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up?
Dig me a deep hole in the ground
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby dog, too
Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down?
Cover it with boulders out of light
Kiss away the dread and blood
And comb my fur & straighten the broken tail
It was dancing up and down
While I was going down the Highway
Like a dead dog on a highway
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up?
Dig me a deep hole in the ground
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby
Once I was a baby dog, too
Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down?
Cover it with boulders out of light
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
I'm going down the Highway
I'm going down the Highway
Till I die
Oh, Till I die
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up?
Dig me a deep hole in the ground
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby dog, too
Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down?
Cover it with boulders out of light
Kiss away the dread and blood
And comb my fur & straighten the broken tail
It was dancing up and down
While I was going down the Highway
Like a dead dog on a highway
Like a dead dog I'm hanging around
Won't you stop and pick me up?
Dig me a deep hole in the ground
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
Once I was a baby
Once I was a baby dog, too
Like a dead dog on a highway
And the big trucks passing by
Won't you put my little body down?
Cover it with boulders out of light
Wrap me in white linnen
That your mother used to wear
On the day you were born
I'm going down the Highway
I'm going down the Highway
Till I die
Oh, Till I die
