Rottweiler Blues Lyrics

Rottweiler Blues lyrics

written by Warren Zevon and Carl Hiaasen
1995 Zevon Music BMI
Got a Glock
in the bedside table
Machine gun leaning by the bedroom door
Kevlar vest
in the closet
Well, I wear it when I go to the store
Shadows on the
window
Rustling in the hedge
Faces at the peephole
Footsteps on the
ledge
If you come calling
He'll be mauling with intent to maim
Don't
knock on my door
If you don't know my Rottweiler's name
Halogen lights in
the driveway
Guardian Angels living next door
One hundred pounds of
unfriendly persuasion
Sleeping on the Florida porch
Slackers in the
market
Bangers in the mall
Skinheads on the golf course
Hunting for
their balls
If you come calling
He'll be mauling with intent to
maim
Don't knock on my door
If you don't know my Rottweiler's
name
Well, he's dreaming about an intruder or two
And the promise of
burglar blood
He's yearning to chew on a gangster tattoo
And to hear the
proverbial sickening thud
Shadows on the window
Rustling in the
hedge
Faces at the peephole
Footsteps on the ledge
If you come
calling
He'll be mauling with intent to maim
Don't knock on my door
If
you don't know my Rottweiler's name
