it was saturday night and i was feeling all right
working on some tonic and gin
when all at once out of nowhere
this foxy lady came walking in
she was looking so fine
she drove me out of my mind
till i just had to ask her to dance
and lord it wasn’t long until i’d fallen into
an ugly cheating one night romance
so i took her home where where we could be alone
’cause my old lady had gone out of town
but when i opened the door i found hell on the floor
’cause she wasn’t out of town anymore
she said look what the dog drug in
i leave him alone
see what he come dragging home
look what the dog drug in
i go out of town
he starts fooling around
look what the dog drug in
so i spent the night in some downtown motel
hoping that she’d ask me back home
but i spent the day trying to call her
she just wouldn’t answer the phone
so i tried once more then i knocked on the door
but all she said was leave her alone
’cause she wasn’t having nothing to do with no dog
that didn’t know where to bury his bone
so i got on my knees
and i begged her please
she said you lay down with dogs
you’re gonna get up with fleas
kept begging to stay
i tried every way
this is all she had to say
look what the dog drug in
