Big Black Dog

lyrics

I ain’t afraid of no BIG BLACK DOG.
I got two pit-bulls on my squad.
I got brave Brom Bones, with his graveyard face,
And Cricket, with her evergreen heart.
Man, I love those dogs.
I would spill my selfish blood.
I ain’t got no time for no cosmic dread –
I got two pit-bulls on my squad.

I ain’t ashamed of what things I done,
And I ain’t ashamed to want the things that I want.
Yeah, I made a few mistakes.
I hurt some people I loved.
But I been trying to do a better job.
I ain’t trying to Christ-up, like I did when I was young.
I just want to get right.
Maybe write a book.
And I ain’t ashamed to want the things that I want.

I ain’t afraid of no GRIM OL’ GOD ---
I been running with the devil so long!
I got my blue suit on,
We’re drinking Weller Antique,
And we’re buyin for the whole damn bar.
No, we ain’t bad dudes.
We’re just trying to have a little bit of fun.
We ain’t got no time for no cosmic grudge –
We ain’t afraid of no Grim Ol’ God.
