Poor old dog on the quay
Your black tongue could not say,
“Will someone rescue me?

Take me on out to sea?”
I dreamed you inside the ship rolling by
It rocked you in the tide

“That old mutt?” Someone chimed,
“He’s been here a real long time!”
Poor old dog in the way

No one saved you today
I dreamed you inside the ship rolling by
It rocked you in the tide
