POLICE DOG BLUES — текст песни (Ry Cooder)

(Arthur Blake, adapted by Ry Cooder)

All my life I`ve been a travellin` man
All my life I`ve been a travellin` man
Stayin` alone and doing the best I can

I ship my trunk down to Tennessee
Ship my trunk down to Tennessee
It`s hard to tell `bout a man like me

I had a gal, I couldn`t get her off my mind
I had a gal, I couldn`t get her off my mind
She passed me up saying she didn`t like my kind

Scared to bother around the house that night
I`m scared to bother around the house that night
Got police dogs cravin` for a fight

His game is rambling when he gets the chance
His game is rambling when he gets the chance
He leaves his mark on everybody`s pants

Guess I`ll travel, guess I`ll let her be
Guess I`ll travel, guess I`ll let her be
Before she sets that police dog on me
