Salty Dog Blues

Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs

[G] Standin on the corner with the low down blues,
[A] Great big hole in the bottom of my shoes,
[D] Honey, let me be your Salty Dog.

       Chorus
       [G] Let me be your [E]Salty Dog,
       Or [A]I won't be your man at all.
       [D] Honey, let me be your Salty Dog.

[G] Listen here Sal, well, I know you,
[A] Run down stockin' and a worn out shoe.
[D] Honey, let me be your Salty Dog.

Chorus

[G] Down in the wildwood sitting on a log,
[A] Finger on the trigger, and eye on the hog.
[D] Honey, let me be your Salty Dog.

Chorus

[G] Pulled the trigger, and they said go.
[A] Shot fell over in Mexico.
[D] Honey, let me be your Salty Dog.
