Jimi Hendrix – Hound Dog lyrics
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Scratchin' all the time,
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog baby,
Scratchin' all the time,
You ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.

When they said you was high classed,
Well, that was just a lie,
When they said you was high classed baby,
That was just a lie.
You ain't never kill a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.

Waouhh!!!

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog,
Scratchin' all the time,
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog baby,
Scratchin' all the time,
You ain't never, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.
