Black Eyed Dog Lyrics

Artist: Nick Drake
Album: Way To Blue

A black eyed dog he called at my door
The black eyed dog he called for more
A black eyed dog he knew my name
A black eyed dog he knew my name
A black eyed dog
A black eyed dog.

I'm growing old and I wanna go home
I'm growiing old and I don't wanna know
I'm growing old and I wanna go home.

A black eyed dog he called at my door
A black eyed dog he called for more.

Is it an ending or parting shot... ie a reflection of his mental health with regard to his trajic ending
however fruiet tree is definatly his own epitaph...
what a wonderfull artist and each time I play his music I cant help myself shouting out "The Great Nick Drake"

Nick's reported as saying, I quote from 'The Nick Drake Files' - 'I have a hell-hound on my trail' - once. You can work out the rest.....
