David Wilcox - Block Dog lyrics

All summer he runs with the kids

He's happy as a block dog

Every day the choice is his

'Cause they all feed him when he's hungry

They all keep him from the cold

But he don't wear their collar

He makes the neighborhood his home

There'll be a fireplace in the winter

There's lots of houses down this street

Summertime he'll catch your frisbee

Beg the best of your dinner meat

I had a long talk with the block dog

All summer he runs with the kids

He's happy as a block dog

Every day the choice is his.

I said Rusty, I'm gettin' married

I used to like your kind of life

But life's different now, it's like a garden

I'd like to tend it with my wife

Dig in one spot make a straight row

You're only diggin' to hide the bone

But when I lived so free alone

I had an empty harvest

I had a long talk with the block dog

All summer he runs with the kids

He's happy as a block dog

Every day the choice is his

Rusty looked up, sad at me and said

Dave, I understand

'Cause we're different now, I'm still a dog

And you're acting like a man."

I had a long talk with the block dog

All summer he runs with the kids

He's happy as a block dog

Every day the choice is his

I ain't nothin' but a hound dog

I ain't nothin' but a hound dog

But I'm tryin' all the time
