Songtext

Well I jammed my guitar to find some sweet melodies
But suddenly the dog was torn from his sleep
I was frightened like hell, I jumped straight out of my seat
I ran to the hallway and there he was, so sweet

The poor black dog, he’s just a loyal soul
The poor black dog is our bro
Poor black dog is black as coal
He just needs to eat and sleep
He only needs to sleep
He just needs to eat and sleep
Oh sometimes, he’s just like me

He looks at us with his big doggy eyes
He is a mixture of a teddy bear
And something of a wolf, but in dear
And the girls call him Shaker Boy or Mr. Burrito man
And he loves to ride in the backseat of our van

The poor black dog, he’s just a loyal soul
The poor black dog is our bro
Poor black dog is black as coal
He just needs to eat and sleep
He only needs to sleep
He just needs to eat and sleep
Oh sometimes, he’s just like me

But his heart is made of gold
Even though is hairy, I hope he’s getting old

The poor black dog, he’s just a loyal soul
The poor black dog is our bro
Poor black dog is black as coal
He just needs to eat and sleep
He only needs to sleep
He just needs to eat and sleep
Oh sometimes, he’s just like me
He just needs to eat and sleep
He only needs to sleep
He just needs to eat and sleep
Oh sometimes, he’s just like me
