My Dog Can'T No Longer

My dog can't no longer bark right
Slipped out last night got in a fight
Po' pup now jus' cries

Mebbe he treed a big ole coon
Or howlin' too loud to th' moon
Po' pup now jus' sighs

Congrats Amy. Reminds of the old adage, doesn't do any good to close the barn door after the horses got out.
