Blake Aaron Davis - Mangy Old Dog Lyrics

One more night with this mangy old dog
He's curled up with a fire on
He ain't that big but he acts real tough
And makes sure his bark is just loud enough
He's the last one down and the first one up
He walks me every morning to my coffee cup
We're just as close as good friends could be
This mangy old dog and me

He saw me through the tough times
He saw me when I cried
Through all the tears of yesteryears
And licked them as they dried
He picked me up like no one could
No matter how they tried
It wells me up with memories
I hardly can describe of this mangy old dog

He's young at heart but he's old in age
His chin's gone white and his hips displaced
But he still loves to beg and still loves to eat
Table scrappings at my feet
And now he settles down to nip at his fleas
Or chase a squirrel in his sleep
Yea we're just as close as good friends can be
This mangy old dog and me
