Black Dog

(Mick Kennedy)

Lord have mercy

 Here comes that black dog again

 No place to hide

 And nothing for the pain

 Creeping up

 And eating at your soul

 I'm fighting hard

 Trying to stay in control

 Lord have mercy

 Here comes that black dog again

 No place to hide

 And nothing for the pain

 There's no escape

 Even in the depths of your sleep

 Fitful slumbers

 Then in to your dreams he'll creep

 Lord have mercy

 Here comes that black dog again

 No place to hide

 And nothing for the pain

 And every time

 Every time it's the same

 Just when you think it's over

 It starts over again

 Lord have mercy

 Here comes that black dog again

 No place to hide

 And nothing for the pain

 Lord have mercy

 Here comes that black dog again

 No place to hide

 And nothing for the pain
