ghost of a dog

miss you tonight, chicken.

Lyrics Home » Artists E » EDIE BRICKELL » Ghost Of A Dog Lyrics
how can that dog be barkin' in the backyard?
we ran over him years ago
how can that dog be runnin' by the back fence?
we ran over him years ago
ghost of a dog
barkin' in the backyard
how can that dog be scratchin' at the back door?
we ran over him years ago
how can that dog be lying under that shady tree
where we buried him years ago?
ghost of a dog
flyin' through the back yard

oh ducky, i hurt with you, last night at supper we had a spazzz cry....
where does that raw feeling come from?
that song is lovely too, makes you laugh and cry all at once.

When you connect to an animal soul to soul, that's it for life.

Treasure that photo and your memories and your ghosts.
