Etta James Watch Dog song lyrics

My man is a watch dog

My man is a watch dog, yeah

I don't want no watch dog, I want a man, uh-huh

I don't want no watch dog, I want a man right now

I don't want no man of mine

Everywhere I go, now, he's a-right behind

I don't want no watch dog, I want a man

Every time I visit my girlfriend's house

He sends his baby brother to check me out

I go outside to sweep in my front yard

He stands over me like a prison guard

I've never seen a man sneaking and a-hiding

when he should be out working and providing

He's a watch dog

Yeah, he's a watch dog
