Old Salty Dog

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 you Salty Dog.
