Belly - Slow Dog

Meet him by the road. There's a dog went running, Picking through spit out leaves A dog won't even touch. Meant to shoot that dog long ago, Just can't leave that dog alone. Maria carry a rifle. Maria carry a dog on her back. That dog is hit again. That slow dog is hit again, With his see-thru skin, The kind of skin you can see through. He's shot again. He's shot again. He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a. He's shot again. He's shot again. He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a. Heal me by a river. Man retires his wife says, But she was so sad and sick. His heart breaks in the mud. Thought I'd leave this world by twenty-one. Couldn't leave that dog alone. Maria carry a rifle. Maria carry a dog on her back. That dog is hit again. That slow dog is hit again, With his see-thru skin, The kind of skin you can see through. He's shot again. He's shot again. He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a. He's shot again. He's shot again. He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a. Maria carry a rifle. Maria carry a dog on her back.
