Salty Dog Blues - Sam McGee; Guitar in C position, standard tuning, Kirk McGee, fiddle and vocal.

Won't you let me be your salty dog?
I don't want to be your man at all
REFRAIN: Salty dog, salty dog
My honey babe, just let me be your salty dog, salty dog
Salty dog, let me be your salty dog

Little pinch of powder and a little pinch of paint
Makes your complexion look what it ain't
REFRAIN: You salty dog, you salty dog
My honey babe, just let me be your salty dog, salty dog
Salty dog, let me be your salty dog

Like looking for a needle in a pile of sand
To find a woman ain't got no man
Salty dog, salty dog
Ain't but a-one thing bothers my mind
Man, all of these women and none is mine
REFRAIN: Salty dog, salty dog
My honey babe, just let me be your salty dog, salty dog
Salty dog, let me be your salty dog

Three barrels of whiskey and-a four barrels of gin
You h'ain't made it home and you can't get in
REFRAIN: You salty dog, you salty dog
My honey babe, just let me be your salty dog, salty dog
Salty dog, let me be your salty dog

Little fish, big fish swimming in the water
Come on back here, boy, and give me my quarter
REFRAIN: You salty dog, you salty dog
My honey babe, just let me be your salty dog, salty dog
Salty dog, let me be your salty dog
