Текст песни
The sunset is dying in the corner so cold
Just water and tea, and the night's taking hold
My wallet is empty, an absolute ghost
The wind’s blowing through what I needed the most
You look at me close, with a sea of blame
Why are you silent, my long-bodied shame?
How do I feed my little black dachshund?
The bowl is so empty, my heart is just crushed
I’ll make it through, man, I’ll find a way
But I love this damn dog more than words can say
Oh, this hungry dog blues, it’s tearing me down
The saxophone cries all over this town
You walk through the house in your heavy wool coat
Your long spine is curved like a sad little note
I don't even know in this cold, blurry haze
Why I keep shielding your long, quiet days
I’ll survive on water, I’ve done it before
This kind of diet won't break me no more
But how do I look in those deep, heavy eyes
Where the dark, silent sorrow never tells lies?
The cupboard is bare, and my pockets are torn
The TV is screaming some trash since the morn
But the dachshund is quiet, from sunset to dawn
With eyes full of sadness, all hope is near gone
How do I feed my little black dachshund?
The bowl is so empty, my heart is just crushed
I’ll make it through, man, I’ll find a way
But I love this damn dog more than words can say
Oh, this hungry dog blues, it’s tearing me down
The saxophone cries all over this town
But the dachshund is quiet... from sunset to dawn
With eyes full of sadness... all hope is near gone
