ME AND YOU AND A DOG NAMED BOO
Lobo


I remember to this day
The bright red Georgia clay
And how it stuck to the tires
After the summer rain
Will power made that old car go
A woman's mind told me that so
Oh how I wish
We were back on the road again

Me and you and a dog named boo
Travelin' and livin' off the land
Me and you and a dog named boo
How I love being a free man

I can still recall
The wheat fields of St. Paul
And the day we all got caught
Stealing from an old hen
Old McDonald he made us work
But then he paid us for what it was worth
Another tank of gas
And back on the road again

I'll never forget the day
We motored stately into big L.A.
The lights of the city put settlin'
Down in my brain
Though it's only been a month or so
That old car's buggin' us to go
We've gotta get away and get back on
The road again

It was written by Hoyt Axton, who also wrote "the Pusher" by Steppenwolf, "Joy To The World" by Three Dog Night, and whose mother Mae Axton wrote "Heartbreak Hotel" by Elvis. He also was a T.V. and movie character actor. He sang his own songs at first but did much better selling them to others. The song is typical late 60's/early 70's lite rock (which would now be considerd country. I think it was a hit for Mac Davis in early seventies.
