Heaven Dog by Coyote Grace Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Heaven dog’s got the old show blues
Hanging on by the soles of his shoes
All of this is pretty old news and look
He’s gone a-hunting
Hanging around your kitchen door
Big brown eyes are going to get me some more
Maybe a scrap from the floor, I’m sure
There’s got to be something
[Verse 2]
See him out there filled to the brim
All of his people disappointed again
Maybe he’ll get a second wind
But he’s sure to keep stepping in it and
Ain’t it fun being out on a spin
Everybody knows just where you’ve been
Said you’d never do it again, but you did
Yes you did
[Chorus]
Have you seen your face?
You’re still a part of this human race
We all got to work for a brighter day, hey
Don’t you think it’s time?
Your luck won’t last and you’re out of line
Don’t you already got everything you want anyway? Hey
[Verse 3]
It’s hard to get on and let yourself sing
When you ain’t in love with anything
Howl at the moon and see what it brings
What does it say?
Slipping away from another bad scrape
Backing his ass down the fire escape
Time to invent a new way, draw up a new play
Get out of your own damn way
[Chorus]
Have you seen your face?
You think you’re special, you think you’re safe
We all got to work for a brighter day, hey
Don’t you think it’s time?
Your luck won’t last and you’re out of line
Don’t you already got everything you want anyway? Hey, hey-hey
Oh, oh oh, oh no no no
[Verse 4]
Heaven dog’s been out on the prowl
Tell me, my friends, how you like me now?
I know that look in your brow I'm
I’m sorry always
And at the end of a long, long day
Heaven dog’s gonna have his way
There ain’t no rest for the pay to play
Just put together some days
[Chorus]
Well, have you seen your face?
Don’t take for granted your loving grace
We all got to work for a brighter day, hey
Don’t you think it’s time?
Your luck won’t last and you’re out of line
Don’t you already got everything you want anyway?
Hey, hey, Oh lord, hmm
Heaven dog’s got the old show blues
Hanging on by the soles of his shoes
All of this is pretty old news and look
He’s gone a-hunting
Hanging around your kitchen door
Big brown eyes are going to get me some more
Maybe a scrap from the floor, I’m sure
There’s got to be something

All of his people disappointed again
Maybe he’ll get a second wind
But he’s sure to keep stepping in it and
Ain’t it fun being out on a spin
Everybody knows just where you’ve been
Said you’d never do it again, but you did
Yes you did
[Chorus]
Have you seen your face?
You’re still a part of this human race
We all got to work for a brighter day, hey
Don’t you think it’s time?

Don’t you already got everything you want anyway? Hey
