Dog Gone - Frank Black

I could not pray, I felt so dog gone

Couldn’t get no witness but I did not know

Then a voice in a whisper said, «You've got to carry it on»

And the news is gonna break

The news is gonna break

The news is gonna break that I am here

Out along the way, I got so bogged down

I had some business there, I did not slow

And a boy in the world said, «You've got to carry it on»

And the news is gonna break

The news is gonna break

The news is gonna break that I am here

I’m not a messenger, I’m not the passenger

Got some business there but you did not know

And the point of my visit, well sir, that’s to carry me on And the news is gonna break

And the news is gonna break

Yeah, your noose is gonna break when I am there

No Paris, no Nepal, no Barstow

Won’t be none of them at all

No Congo, no Kish or Kishangargh, no Memphis

It doesn’t matter who you are

I’m on my way, I feel so dog gone

Go 'bout your business but you did not know

And the point if there is one, well sir, that’s to carry me on And the news is gonna break

(Your noose is gonna break)

(The news is gonna break that I am here)

The news is gonna break that I am here

And your noose is gonna break when I am there
