Dog Gone Lyrics

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 gotta carry it on

And the news is gonna break
The news is gonna break
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa

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 gotta carry it on

And the news is gonna break
The news is gonna break
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa

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
The news is gonna break
Yeah, your noose is gonna break when I am there, whoa

No Paris
And 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)
Yeah, the news is gonna break that I am here, whoa
The news is gonna break that I am here, whoa
And your noose is gonna break when I am there
