Dirty Old Egg Sucking Dog

Johnny Cash


Well, we would like to, I'd like to do a couple of
Of love songs here for you now.
One, you know the man's best friend is his dog, if he's got nothing else
And uh, this song is about a dog

Well he's not very handsome to look at
Oh he's shaggy and he eats like a hog
And he's always killin' my chickens
That dirty old egg-suckin' dog

Egg-suckin' dog
I'm gonna stomp your head in the ground
If you don't stay out of my hen house
You dirty old egg-suckin' hound

Now if he don't stop eatin' my eggs up
Though I'm not a real bad guy
I'm gonna get my riffle and send him
To that great chicken house in the sky
