peter stampfel - me and old dog tray lyrics

[verse 1]
traipse across the bayou, howlin’ at the moon
runnin’ through the backwood, barking at some coon
drivin’ down those rid dirt roads, [?] time in may
ridin’ in my pickup truck, me and old dog tray

[verse 2]
curling to the mailbox, waggin’ his old tail
growls at me like thunder ‘less he gets to hold the mail
never drops a postcard, hardly gets it wet
that’s my old dog tray, good as dogs can get
[verse 3]
tray he ain’t no big dog, fact he’s kind of small
tray he ain’t no pureblood, mongrel dog is all
tray he ain’t no special colour, black and grey and tan
nothin’ makes my heart feel good, just the way he can

[verse 4]
when i play harp with him, he would sing along
ma say that ain’t singing, howlin’ ain’t no song
we did not care two dry beans what my ma did say
we just called it music, me and old dog tray

[verse 5]
born in late octobеr 1969
when i first laid eyes on him, said that dog is minе
pa said wait until he’s ween then we’ll pick him up
that’s your birthday present, that funny looking pup

[verse 6]
funny looking puppy, funny looking dog
we had fun together, rain or shine or fog
winter summer spring or fall, it was all okay
‘cos we had each other, me and old dog tray

[verse 7]
nothin’ lasts forever, everything will pass
now he’s on the hillside, lying ‘neath the grass
but i know for certain sure, somewhere far away
i’ll play harp and he will sing, me and old dog tray
