Dirty Dog Lyrics by Ian Gillan

Toolbox

0

Ah, why don't you tie my hands behind my back
Give me torture on the rack
Yeah
Back in the gutter where I belong
Hit me when I'm down
Take my money, take my life
Take your pleasure, make it last
Crawl under your wire
Shine in darkness
Where you hidin'? Shame on you
Aaah, dirty dog
Ooh, you dirty dog
Dirty dog, you had your day
I know when. I get when to stray
Now you're out to grass
And the world goes past
Don't you know all the turns
Now you've got what you deserve
Paid in full, I've been told
You're not gonna leave the fold
Where you hidin'? Shame on you
Aaah, dirty dog
Ooh, you dirty dog
Oh, you dirty dog
Oh, you dirty dog
Where you hidin'? Shame on you
Aaah, dirty dog
Ooh
Tie my hands behind my back
Give me torture on the rack
Take my money, take my life
Oh, you dirty dog
Every dog has its day
I know where you went astray
You been paid in full I've been told
You dirty dog
Oh, you dirty dog
Ooh
You dirty dog
Dirty, dirty, dirty (repeat)
