king missile – that old dog lyrics
i waited three and a half years for a train to springfield, ohio
i gave up and i began to walk, but i was so hungry
and it’s a d-mn good thing i was wearing shoes
i decided the cool thing to do would be to order some hallah bread and turtle soup
but i ordered a tuna salad sandwich
and some french fries
i mean, what the h-ll’s the difference anyway
look, the thing is,
i’m half way to springfield,
like i’m in maryland someplace,
and the money runs out
i get some freelance welding work in silver spring and then-
and this was a big kick for me-
i put on my hat and i said “sorry, sue ellen, but i got to be moving on.”
as it turned out, i never did get to springfield, ohio.
oh, but sometimes,
sometimes when the moon is full
i can hear that old dog howling
howling, like he was right outside my own window.
