[Chorus]
D A
Every time I go to town
D
The boys keep a-kickin' my dog around
A
Makes no difference if'n he's a hound
D
They gotta quit kickin' my dog around
[Interlude]
D A D A D
[Verse 1]
A
Me and Lem Briggs and ol' Bill Brown
D
Took us a little walk to town
A
My old Jim dog, an orn'ry old cuss
D
He just naturally follered us
[Verse 2]
A
As we went by Joe Johnson's store
D
A passel of yaps come out the door
A
Yellin' and a-screamin' and a-throwin' rocks
D
They run my Jim dog under a box
[Verse 3]
A
Well Jim seed his duty there and then
D
He lit into them gentlemen
A
He sure messed up that courthouse square
D
With the rags and the meat and the hide and the hair
[Chorus]
D A
Every time I go to town
D
The boys keep a-kickin' my dog around
A
Makes no difference if'n he's a hound
D
They gotta quit kickin' my dog around
{Outro]
