Hear My Black Dog Bark

[Chorus]
Every morning when I come in
I can hear my black dog bark
Every morning when I come in
I can hear my black dog bark
Warnin' me that someone been hangin’ around
Oh, that just 'bout to break my heart

[Verse 1]
I go home in the morning
My breakfast, it ain't never done
I go home in the morning
My breakfast, it ain’t never done
Everytime I get to my house, that's about the time
My little girl, she's out on a run

[Verse 2]
I don't see why
Little girl wanna treat poor Lightnin' so mean
I don't see why
Little girl wanna treat poor Lightnin' so mean
You know can ask her for a glass of sweet milk
And I'll swear, she will give me cream

[Verse 3]
You know everybody appetite ain’t alike
In the morning, I drinks sweet milk
And in the evening, I don’t drink none
Now why that she don't have my breakfast done
She’s out on a four day run

[Chorus]
Every morning when I go home
I can hear my black dog bark
Every morning when I go home
I can hear my black dog bark
You know it hurt me so bad
You know it 'bout to break my heart

[Verse 5]
That woman know she mistreat me
She know she done me wrong
But that's alright, one day
She comin' back home

[Chorus]
And I go home
I can hear my black dog bark
You know it hurt me so bad
’Til it be 'bout to bust my heart
