Throw This Old Dog a Bone Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

I said, come on, baby, please throw this old dog a bone
I said, come on, baby, please throw this old dog a bone
′Cause I'm driftin′ an' driftin', like a ship out on the sea


I said, baby, baby, baby, I ain′t got no place to stay
I said, baby, baby, I ain′t got no place to stay
Well, well, well, I'm driftin′ now, baby
Lord, I'm driftin′ from door to door

Lord, when I first met you, baby, baby, way down south somewhere
When I first met you, baby, baby, way down south somewhere
You didn't go no place, now baby, but the church and the Sunday school

You been up here in Detroit, baby, goin′
'Round to every notoriety joint in town
You been up here in old Detroit, goin'
′Round to every notoriety joint in town
