John Lee Hooker - Throw This Old Dog A Bone Lyrics

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' and 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, um
But the church and the Sunday school
You been up here in Detroit, baby
Go around to ev'ry notoriety joint in town

You been up here in old Detroit
Go around to ev'ry notoriety joint in town
