Low Down Dog
Holy Modal Rounders

Don't ya take me for no low down dog
Low down dog
Don't ya know I got my pride
I just want to walk beside you, baby

But you say, but you say
I must walk behind
Well I ain't holdin still for none of that stuff

Who will keep your bed warm when I'm gone
When I'm gone
If you let the fire go out
Better know what your about, my baby

But you say, but you say
My best weren't enough
Well I ain't holdin still for none of that stuff

Who will mind the children when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When you want to get away
Who will take them out to play, my baby

But you say, but you say
Kids are my whole life
Well I ain't holdin still for none of that stuff

Who will feed you peaches when I'm gone
When I'm gone
Your new lover may be cute
But will he bring home the fruit,my baby
But you say, but you say
Peaches make me fat
Well I ain't holdin still for none of that stuff

Don't you treat me like no Viet Cong
Viet Cong
Don't you know I'm from Da Nang
I just wanta let it hang, my baby
But you say, but you say
You will drop the bomb
Well he don't go along with none of that stuff

Well I'm a wagon travelin down your road
Down the road
Well you say I'm just one more
That it really aint a bore, my baby
But you say, but you say
Your road's worn and rough
Well I ain't holdin still for none of that stuff


An old favorite that is jolly good fun to sing and play. Fiddles, dogs barking, and la das should be raucous!
