I'm alone, fever dog Scratchin' at my back door I hear you howl But I don't listen no more Got to spit it out The taste of the hair Of the fever dog Come around again Well, that would be the end Of the fever dog Fever dog Came to this Black City I'm not surprised You're beggin' now for six days Got to spit it out The taste of the hair Of the fever dog Come around again Well that would be the end Of the fever dog Got to spit it out The taste of the hair Of the fever dog Come around again Well that would be the end Of the fever dog Oh, oh, oh Scratchin' at my back door
