Like a dead dog on a highway Like a dead dog I'm hanging around Won't you stop and pick me up? Dig me a deep hole in the ground Wrap me in white linnen That your mother used to wear On the day you were born Once I was a baby dog, too Like a dead dog on a highway And the big trucks passing by Won't you put my little body down? Cover it with boulders out of light Kiss away the dread and blood And comb my fur & straighten the broken tail It was dancing up and down While I was going down the Highway Like a dead dog on a highway Like a dead dog I'm hanging around Won't you stop and pick me up? Dig me a deep hole in the ground Wrap me in white linnen That your mother used to wear On the day you were born Once I was a baby Once I was a baby dog, too Like a dead dog on a highway And the big trucks passing by Won't you put my little body down? Cover it with boulders out of light Wrap me in white linnen That your mother used to wear On the day you were born I'm going down the Highway I'm going down the Highway Till I die Oh, Till I die
