A talking blues (in G) that I wrote while delirious with Giardia. I was on an extended camping trip in the Wind River Mountains with a four legged outlaw that went by the name of Bandit: the best true pal I've ever had. This guy was a hundred pound mutt with black hair and webbed feet like a Lab, the looks and brains of a Shepard, and the curved tail of an Akita.

 I Probably won't meet a girl next week, 
Probably wont find a job.  
As long as I can feed the dog next week

Sitting on an old dead log 
Waiting for my old black dog 
Looking back at a daffodil 
That's seen more grief than I ever will. 
Well, I looked to Jordan and I looked away, 
I looked at a Playboy too!  
I even thought I saw the light one night, 
But it turned out to be the flu. 
Sitting on an old dead log 
Waiting for my old black dog 
Looking back at a daffodil 
That's seen more grief than I ever will
Though I was raised a better way 
("do my work and take my pay"). 
Well, life just ain't a catalogue 
I'm gonna sit here on this log.  
Sitting on an old dead log 
Waiting for my old black dog
Looking back at a daffodil 
 That's seen more grief than I ever will 
 Like I was saying......  
 Probably won't meet a girl next week, 
 I Probably wont find a job.  
 As long as I can feed the dog next week 
I'm gonna sit here on this log.  
Sitting on an old dead log 
Waiting for my old black dog 
Looking back at a daffodil 
That's seen more grief than I ever will.
