Low down dog

Don't you take me for no low down dog

Low down dog!

Don't you know I got my pride

I just want to walk beside you, baby

But you say

But you say

I must walk behind?

Well, I ain't holding still for none of that stuff!

Who will keep your bed warm when I'm gone?

When I'm gone?

If you let the fire go out

Better know what you're about, my baby

But you say

But you say

My bed's warm enough?

Well I ain't holding still for none of that stuff!

Who will mind the children when I'm gone?

When I'm gone?

When you want to get away

Who will take them out to play, my baby?

But you say

But you say

Kids are my whole life!

Well I ain't holding still for none of that stuff!

Who will feed you peaches when I'm gone?

When I'm gone?

Your new lover may be cute

But will he bring home the fruit, my baby?

But you say

But you say

Peaches make me fat

Well I ain't holding still for none of that stuff!

Don't you treat me like no Viet Cong!

Viet Cong!

Don't you know I'm from Da Nang

I just want to let it hang my baby

But you say

But you say

We gonna drop the bomb!

Well I ain't holding still for none of that stuff!

Well, on a wagon traveling down your road!
