Sleeping Dogs

(album: The Whippoorwill - 2012)

Well I'm not trying to get in the way
Minding my own got nothing to say
About nobody
That's right nobody
Don't shake my tree, don't rattle my cage
You and me will be on the same page
Got no trouble
Don't make no trouble

Yeah you best let a sleeping dog lie
Cause soon you'll come to understand why
Yea your gonna get bit right between the eyes

Let me tell you how it all went down
A funky little joint on the edge of town
Called the pine's pub
Ol' wayne had too much
Well push come to shove, and it came to blows
Spilled some blood and I broke his nose
Yes I had to do it
Mama that's all there was to it

Now you best let a sleeping dog lie
Cause soon you'll come to understand why
Yea your gonna get bit right between the eyes
Said you best let the sleeping dogs lie
Come on yeah

Make no mistake let there be no doubt
Paint me in a corner I'll fight my way out
The moral of the story brother, this is it
I'll be all over you like stink on shit

And you better let the sleeping dogs lie
Soon you gonna understand why
You gonna get bit right between the eyes
If you don't you let the sleeping dogs lie

You best let a sleeping dog lie
Cause soon you'll come to understand why
Yea your gonna get bit right between the eyes
Said you best let the sleeping dogs lie
