My dog died in 2005
She was holding my heart I was holding her hide in the rain

My neighbor Joe shot my dog
He said I killed her cause you called the cops on me

I said when I die my only ghost is for you Joe
Otherwise I’m staying gone when I go

After that my grandpa passed
At night sometimes I’d wonder when we’d meet

My dad said when you’re dead you’re dead
My mother disagreed

I said when I die my only ghost is for our neighbor Joe
Otherwise I’m staying gone whеn I go

I hated Joe
He had a daughtеr though
And I would carve her name on the creek stones
I was hunting raccoons in the wax moon
She came to me one day before the dawn
She said hold me she said she couldn’t sleep
She said she had a vision where she lay
In the low weeds of the dry creek
And her naked body covered with snakes
That’s how I’ll die she said
And I said I'd be glad to die with you that way
And when I die my only ghost is for your daddy Joe
Otherwise I’m staying
Otherwise I’m staying
Otherwise I’m staying gone
When I go
