Strawbs - A Boy And His Dog lyrics
rate meA dog is all a good boy needs<br />
To lick his wounds when his heart bleeds<br />
To gnaw his bones and chew his meat<br />
A friend to turn to in defeat.<br />
<br />
A dog is all a good boy needs<br />
To follow where the master leads<br />
A faithful servant true and kind<br />
The seeing eye that guides the blind<br />
Who understands all his commands<br />
Who never queries his demands<br />
Who disapproves but still concedes<br />
A dog is all a good boy needs.<br />
<br />
A dog is all a good boy needs<br />
To cure the sick among the weeds<br />
To fix the root of his disease<br />
And set his weary mind at ease<br />
Who always answers when he calls<br />
Who never stumbles when he falls<br />
Who breaks the back of his misdeeds<br />
A dog is all a good boy needs.<br />
Who bares her teeth but never bites<br />
the Mother courage when she fights<br />
Who stands to lose but still succeeds<br />
A dog is all a good boy needs.
